After we had passed around our time
|
|
Like a handout from a middle school teacher
|
|
Which left us as curiously disinterested
|
|
As the typical middle school kid-creature,
|
|
|
|
I had begun to realize we all had fun
|
|
While I analyzed the past
|
|
That I hold beneath my beanie.
|
|
|
|
With the help of Aladdin's nameless genie,
|
|
Tupac, and the also-immortal Houdini,
|
|
I relived the photos we claim
|
|
Frame us as fresh as a French Martini.
|
|
|
|
And if you don't believe me,
|
|
Well, I'd be quite surprised,
|
|
|
|
Considering the retina-rays,
|
|
Which flashed such a look
|
|
From behind your eyes
|
|
|
|
To broadcast the current thought
|
|
That's now crossing your mind
|
|
Which you'd otherwise only tell
|
|
To your roommate, pet, and/or the Lord divine.
|
|
|
|
You remember the fun we had, too.
|
|
|
|
Well, besides the homework, and exams,
|
|
And the whole "Hell freezing over"
|
|
Which couldn't stop our professor's plans
|
|
|
|
To take down our GPA's
|
|
And No-School snow days.
|
|
|
|
Comradery through common enemy.
|
|
Tomfoolery as tedium's remedy.
