a very bad poem, brought to you out of pure frustration

oh, georgetown,
every day i statuscheck—
click: name, click: password,
status: complete

but i am not complete,
not without you.
i beg for, plead for
closure—
i see it in my dreams,
click: name, click: password,
status: decision

pining here,
waiting and hoping,
i plead—
give me relief
even if relief
is rejection

comments

Much better than my poem. And it has a poignant ending.

may I add:

but an acceptance/
plus/
a half scholarship/
will be fine/
too./

(the comment window wouldn’t respect my hard return line breaks)

Good luck to you, I really hope it works out. I’m going through the same thing at UVa, and still pending at 7 schools. It’s really been torture lately - let’s just get it over with. The stress is beating me too, I’d take the dings just for the closure as well.

ok, it did do my breaks. the preview window was lying to me.

Hee! I like the additional ending, CopyB!
