Tenure Achieved Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The having of common sense has yet to receive,
An honorary degree from any college and/or university...
That has proclaimed to have identified to graduate,
Scholars to present with convincing representation...
A society that professes a welcoming of qualified minds!
Unless...
Those accepting such praise and adulation bestowed,
Have found themselves in positions opposed by the ones...
Unwilling to expose their incompetence or tenure achieved,
In the fear of losing their overpaid salaries obtained...
Maintained by a false postering gained but not suspected.
