The Night I Fell...

[..on the dance floor, was the night i fell for her.]



The way you look at it,
I'm incapable of dance;
For when i danced with you that night,
I clumsily lost balance.
The way you look at it,
I just can't do it right;
My lack of dancing aptitude
Caused me to fall that night.

The way i look at it,
I'm capable of dance;
But when i looked into your eyes,
I was sent into a trance.
The way you looked when we two danced-
You were such a pretty sight;
I felt so weak in the knees that i
Fell for you that night.

Future Perfect Tens

[Woe to you oh relative grading, who assigns GPA in wrath. Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of my least (CPI). For it is a human number; its number is six point six six.]

I start off each semester
With dreams of cracking a ten;
But that is just the beginning, let me
Say what happens then:

The mid-sems come too early,
They don't go off very fine;
So after the halfway mark,
My hopes go down to nine.

My vivas are plain pathetic,
And for term-work, I am late;
So after submissions week,
My hopes go down to eight.

The end-sems come, I study like
I've never studied before:
I'm studying in a single week,
What I should have in four!

The semester is now over,
And I'm hoping for a seven;
I deserve at least that, I think
When I'm looking up to heaven.

Then results are finally out,
And I am in a fix:
Inspite of my prayer and effort,
I end up with a six.

I laugh, I kid, I joke, I jeer
After each disaster,
That to score a perfect ten,
There is always the next semester.!
