Day in a Life



Can’t shut off the alarm
The day has come for the toughest exam
Integral to checking every students RAM
Impending sense of doom or before the storm calm
You’d rather get locked up in an Ashram
Than clam up after a decade of choke or cram
Alas you must prove you’re worth a damn
Or come back an year later ,no one has a single qualm
