Life in KMLA

Life in KMLA is that of a mayfly’s, trying to fly high from bright to night.

Every day,
We hatch our beds and match our clothes,
Snatch our breakfasts and catch our classes,
Botch our quizzes and watch our presentations,
Crouch down to sleep whenever we can,
Touch-down back to our dorms,
Bleach ourselves with homework to become the top-
Notch students, or batch of zombies.

Exhausted, we stretch ourselves and fetch our pajamas,
Relieved that we survived yet another mayfly’s day.

Lying down in bed, we recollect,
Jokes we exchanged with friends,
Chicken legs we ate in rooms,
Business plans we turned in at the last minute,
Which become the smiles in our faces,
and the hopes for prospects of another mayfly’s day.
