I hate what the academy has become:
A rotted corpse, a heap of dung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Polluting young minds with absurd phrases,
Poisoning them in garish phases,
That is the work of the teachers\u2014
These gnostic doctors, these ungodly reapers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the students are not free from blame\u2014
Reason they hold, yet passions they inflame
Killing their souls and then feel
The need to be pricked with steel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Their fields are barren, they scorn birth:
The meek, then, shall inherit the earth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
