THE ECOLOGY STUDENT
Always eats alone
And keeps her own company
Her head in a book
Even in the dining hall
Their whispered nickname
“The Academia Nut”
Oh yes, she’s heard it
But you don’t let on of course
Dignified silence
A study in deepest blue
Mindless cruelty
She fingers her hidden scars
Stained with history
Like the poor planet itself
