No Internet Access

For want of a connection, there is no Internet

For want of the Internet, there is no homework

For want of homework, there is no studying

For want of studying, there is no passing grade

For want of a grade, there is no passing class

For want of a class, there is no graduation

For want of graduation, there is no joy

For want of joy, there is no moving out of the basement

For want of out of the basement, there is no job

For want of a job, there is no success

For want of success, there is no sanity

For want of sanity, there is only politics

All of this for the want of a connection

I wrote this poem when I just started my Junior year at college.
