Woke up past noon
ate a banana
roommate goes to dining hall for the first time this semester
learned a lot about him
as if we just met
because we never ate together before
campus emptying out by the second
a subdued atmosphere
as if orbit in space
a hushed dark murmur
said bye to suitemate
who's off to d.c.
ate again with mr. star
took the second to last exam
bubbling in answers one after the other
anxious selections
walked out
studied for the last exam
on a cloudy, misty evening
wolfed down suitemate's stuffed shells
he's on League while another is asleep
while another is gaming.
and so it went.
