Vilanelle

I have this dream of going Ivy League

Walking amongst the high of society

But it is a fad never meant to be.

This state; it seems like I will never leave.

Never able to achieve prosperity

I have this dream of going Ivy League.

The Upper-West Side, something I’ll never see.

Useless street names learned to their final T.

But is a fad never meant to be.

As for success, seems I won’t find the key.

Finances seem to be tough to agree.

I have this dream of going Ivy League.

To Columbia University

I was excited for the big city

But it is a fad never meant to be.

Going to KU is now what I foresee.

The Kansas haven of local artsies

I have this dream of going Ivy League.

But it is a fad never meant to be.
