Post Graduate Intern (July 28, 1998)

Mind over monster,
I holly-hocked
My foundation ring
For a six-month century
And a ticket to tomorrow

This one was written when I was about two months out of graduate school. For lack of job offers, I took an internship at a historic farm museum. It ended up being a year-long experience, but it set me on my way in my chosen profession. Yes, I know, it's more prose than poetry.
