It begins!

Finally, after dragging its feet for so long.

Ruminations of a drunk student

Rejoice rejoice, it's finally here
let's jump around and drink some beer!
"Too long its made its passage known",
the desperate cry out with a moan
Let's rend, and tear, and burn our stuff!
to itty bitty shreds of fluff!
Gone are the hallowed words of Tarling
(they really put me to sleep, how galling)
Incinerate, thou evil notes on Inflation
I'll laugh and dance at your cremation
Gone is Othello, and Eustacia too
I couldn't care less why they're feeling blue
To Gorby, and Reagan, and S.D.I
go blow yourselves to bits, sky high!
And now the booze has done its course
its with great reluctance, and remorse
that I must resume my obscene act
of studying, studying, mugging fact.
