by Derek Morrison
No platform here, no dissonant thought
This seat of learning is much sought
For our safe haven has banished fear
Speech codes and policies make it clear
Our scholars halos must always shine
Deviance reported via our bias line.
We have trigger warnings just in case
There’s any risk we’ll fall from grace
Preaching our diversity and equality
We are proud masters of this polity
So we signal virtue in much excess
Doing nothing to cause you stress.
Consumer of deeper learning be content
No controversy here, no rage to vent
Our single glorious free speech zone
Means wilder kites can still be flown
But rest assured more fragile flowers
No storms now blow in Ivory Towers.
