over educated

sometimes
too much education can hold
us back,
though i've never
had that problem,
having
spent six formative
years
at a community college,
but my friend
Albert, for example,
who has more degrees than
a thermometer,
and is the leading
scientist on fusion and fission
development,
has been unemployed
for three years,
because we've farmed out
all our intelligent data
to China,
although he's up for a job
at Wal-Mart
as a greeter.
