At the university there is a mysterious course

In which a black & white film begins with war

And ends with a dog biting a ball

 

A student says she’s reminded

That the human body is mostly water

 

Another says she’s reminded

Of the sermon Van Gogh wrote on a leaf

 

One of the class allies laughs

As though living a life subtracted from God

 

The teacher responds to the first

“In which heart sediment can be found”

 

The second

“Faith makes a man easy”

 

The third

“Well aren’t you your own cup of twenty perspectives”

 

At the university there is a mysterious course

In which a black & white film begins with war

And ends with a dog biting a ball
