Advice to a young student

Word for praise
Cum laude
And portentous thoughs creep in about our sat results

Go forth with confidence
And remember the small people
Carpe diem
Is only a fancy way of saying
Get off your lazy ass

Don't smoke and always remember
To wear sunscreen
Your blatant disregard for authority is appalling and you should be ashamed
Of what brown can do for you

Don't sweat the small stuff
Said the penny pinching octogenarian
It's just life
And life is only a test to get into heaven
Or hell where your soul will rot for eternity

A smile says a thousand words but a picture is just
Molten plastic on wasted canvas

Rome wasn’t built in a day
But don't look at me that way because
My feelings for you could change any second
