The Almighty A
Dave Short

O almighty A
Please guide me to scholastic achievement.
I am ready to be molded -
The more learning is like filling a tank,
Unleaded, unlearned, unleaned,
The better.

I am prepared to give up self-semblance,
O almighty A,
As long as I can see Your smiling face
On Judgement Day.

I will abide by your rules,
Memorize millions of minutiae.
Because I am lost without You. You are
My shepherd. Guide your flock (but
Me especially) with Divine love.

This and every day,
I humbly bow down and pray,
And submit to what my prophets the pedants say.
Amen, O almighty A.
