The Ball Turret Gunner, today.

From my mother’s sleep I fell into State U.
And I drank in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Miles from home, loosed from my parents’ love,
I woke to black vodka and the nightmare brothers.
When I died I was .495 booze.

    The headline and subhead is …

    The Fraternity Paradox: Lower GPA, Higher Incomes.
    Party more, study less and still do better than other male graduates in the work force. What’s the secret?
