Today is the last of the last
Gone past the previous cast
Repeat the slog
Third generation, clog to clog
Great grandfathers before
In eighteen sixty-four
Missed the war
Chose the close of door
Now it is my time
Read the rhyme
Off to do my thing
Sounds to have a similar ring
From principles mathematic
To humanities emphatic
To some it makes no sense
Without recompense
But please come on near
I am agog with fear
Trepidation in depth
Marks my breadth
What is to learn
But past concerns
Present understandings
Laughter on the landings
Clog or sculpture
Approach the vulture
Is it daft to mine or craft
This unknown shaft
The cobblers shop
The mighty stop
The rusted hinge
With lusts syringe
So it’s a must
Last take on just
Today’s the day
The slaves stole away
