Veritas
Obscene
Is an institution with a 50.7 billion dollar endowment
Coveting an additional 686 million taxpayer dollars annually
To cover two-thirds of its research expenditures
Because the truth is
Whenever Harvard is in for a penny
We’re all in for a pound
Grotesque
Is an institution that leverages obscene wealth and influence
On behalf of the Global Intifada
Because an even deeper truth about Harvard
Is that again and again
The truth depends on context
And in the context of Harvard
The truth comes at a price of
50.7 billion dollars and counting
What, you might ask
Does this truth have to do with the Gobal Intifada?
You see, at 21st century Harvard
Counting the dollars in the endowment goes up
While the number of Jews enrolled goes down–
In recent years, Harvard has
Cut its Jewish bodies in half
Which is precisely the goal
Of the Global Intifada
As made plain for all to see on October 7th
In a truth
That Harvard is capable of contextualizing
But never grasping
