Fate of cinder block

In college you read Marx and Hegel
discussed Derrida and Kant.
Ramen noodles and a bagel-
Paying student loans, you can't

afford the latest designs:
Ikea bookshelves, which you mock.
Debate the absurd and sublime
With bookshelves of cinder block.

  1. What did you use on the floor under the blocks?

    1. Hi Todd, This is not my bookshelf, I just wrote a silly poem on how people use concrete blocks ("cinder blocks"). Perhaps plywood or luan or something like that would work.
