more degrees than a thermometer

it's not
fine art exactly. but they're framed.
all the degrees
representing
education
at various institutions
and money
spent.
i only owe two hundred
thousand
on tuition,
he tells me. but hopefully
the next president
will erase all of that.
i turn 35 next year and
i've sent my resume out
everywhere.
so it's just a matter of time
before i land
that big job.
i'm sure there's some
company out there that
needs a poet slash
philosopher.
