Sure enough, they helped convince
the rest of us their kids really were
bad weather
We instinctively conflate schooling
with days it rained
Unqualified kids rankle us on days when
weather was bad in America
but this scandal should also call into question
outsize transactions, reputations of such,
in mind until the day after a snowstorm
They exist partly through a bargain
in which melting slush commingles
with the highest-achieving orbit
When wealthy elites launder privilege
outside my window–not appealing
Hardworking peers thought the way to handle
tasks was to do them
A wealthy wastrel actually performed worse
and he went on boring
