Academic Conceit

Academic Conceit
[A quadruple entendre you probably missed]

Sometimes I just can’t help but notice how
Superior I am to other folks.
Dull academics gaze at me like cows,
Apparently too dumb to get my jokes.

My genius seems to seep from every pore,
The honor and the virtue of a knight!
I must intimidate them to the core,
For no one reads a single thing I write.

How complicated is the life I’ve led,
How skilled my navigation of its shoals.
Why just today at breakfast—there’s no bread!
With genius did I toast some dinner rolls.

If bovine colleagues don’t revere my mind
It’s proof that my own brilliance made them blind.
