NOW YOU HAVE YOUR M. A. DEGREE
September 24, 2024
Written for Joe’s Graduation
Now you have your M.A. degree,
And from text books, marks and exams you are free.
Through the West, you and Matilda will have fun
In regions remote from Wilmington.
The world is your oyster says the myth
So here is the knife to open it with-
Waiting for you is its delectable meat
Of sounds and sights and a life complete.
And a hotel of your own with all its delights,
With mathematical problems to make your mind fight.
