Boise State Registration Woes: A Villanelle

There is nothing more maddening than a big, red X
When it follows the heading: Art 109.
I just want to study the artistic subjects

Like Intro to Painting, but oh no, it objects
When I readily click the green “submit” sign.
There is nothing more maddening than a big, red X.

Maybe it’s some dark voodoo, a curse, spell, or hex
That rejects me the classes I need assigned
I just want to study the artistic subjects.

College class scheduling shouldn’t be so complex,
I think as I sit here, yell curses, and whine.
There is nothing more maddening than a big, red X.

So what do I do if I cannot get in next?
Work on a dairy farm, an assembly line?
I just want to study the artistic subjects.

The frustration, it builds, when I see it reject
Each class I sign up for, like Art 109.
There is nothing more maddening than a big, red X,
I just want to study the artistic subjects.

  2. I relate...

    which is the praise any artist wishes. A connective message between the artist and reader/viewer.
