From the Mailbag

Two Poems

With pseudo-scholars who have shammed

And wriggled in to gain a seat

Among the literate elite,

Assured of academic status,

They roam the sacred Tower gratis,

And with some luck, a publication

Might bring further elevation.

Their goal? The Ivory Tower's apex,

And a Full Professor's paychecks.

But who would choose to be in their place,

Up a Tower short of heirspace? Michael M. Stewart, MD '65 MPH.
