Immigrant Quest in a Barren Land: The Dashed Hopes of Iwishihadan Education

She arrived full

of hope

wanting the

full scope

of

Knowledge

preparation

for

college

cultural enrichment

civic preparation

professional satisfaction.

 

Ready

for action,

for her

the attraction

the abiding

quest

the glow

the glory

was the

chance to

Know.

 

Thus came

Iwishihadan Education

freshly arrived

in the land of

hope,

wanting that

full

scope

of

Knowledge

previously

denied.

 

She

searched

in likely

places

for some

traces

some

measure

of that

treasure,

gleaming gems

aglow

with all that

that she wanted

to Know.

 

Everywhere

she searched;

fervently

she tried;

but at

the end of

her quest

in the

one chest

she could open

she found the

message:

 

“Still denied.”
