The Big Green Stain

Spring semester at university

 

Fingers stained malachite green

 

In the lab in microbiology

 

Wore stains proudly around campus.

 

Never missed a class.

 

Professor’s notes on chalkboards

 

Started to make sense.

 

The green stain grew larger and brighter.

 

Made some lectures fuzzier.

 

Science poser; lab puzzler.

Your guess is as good as mine. I had no idea where this poem was headed. Perhaps the poem is about what most college students face, becoming either a serious student or a pothead.
