a thorough, practical, accomplished and christian education,
fit the pupil for the faithful discharge of the responsible duties that await her
in life.
under an able and energetic faculty
an able body of teachers is thus being reared up.
while infants pray and oppressed rage and poets burn and prophets fade and fountains murmur and sons die and churches mold
in the half-life of superstition
excluded from opportunities of respectability in humble confinement
from condescended illusions of independence.
a missed opportunity for assimilated cultural genocide
manufacturers artizans fostering exalting inventive genius
increase trade business and commercial mart
blending colors richly and well
designing chastely and architecturally.
some thousands may promenade the handsome galleries
there could be robotic mastodons
roaming the city at night by gaslight
eating litter and defecating art.
but our wealth is too employed
for the genius all around.
cimon starves on holiday street
sanctuary for cadavers collected
from fresh graves and murdered sailors,
for imported mummies,
for cryosectioning and magnetic resonance imaging
of atoms now scattered in the streets
more elegantly than confetti
contemplating union
taught, led, and provided for,
or choosing good and evil.
determination may be singularly infinite
