Without Debt
"lest at any time they should be converted,
and their sins should be forgiven them." -- Mark 4:12
Jean always wanted to go to university.
Walk the steps into the library. Stroll
to the gazebo, dropped like a chocolate chip
into a bed of fragrance and shrubs. Rest
under the carillon until the top of the hour
when the digital chimes would sing. Practice
stealth inside the buildings, especially
the cafeteria. Attend sporting events
and special gatherings. Exude pride
at the end of four years
for never having actually enrolled.
