you are the professor

you are the professor
by DIY Danna
You can build a Ham Radio out of coconuts
But you can’t figure out how to fall like leaves
Into the brown kraft paper to build a boat sailing
To the U.S. Virgin Islands on a three hour tour.
A hot damn cruise!
Teach me something you can’t learn
In metaphysics books and crush me like
An American Cookie in a pink plastic bag.
Yeah, I’ve got corny TV references,
and ridiculous hip hop metaphors.
And you’ve always had my heart.
Love, Gilligan.
