April, though, half-interested in the day's Software Engineering class at university had things aplenty to brew about in her mind: she was hungry, but with an hour or more to go for the lunch bell, she simply had to pen this down to keep her mind diverted--from both the drone of the Professor's Power Point lecture, and also the strong pulls of her hunger pang.
-----
Yellow satin, and
Hues of white.
Won't do to touch it--
For the teacher is in sight.
Nib or nap
Is a choice so tough.
Though he is all yap,
I dream of the veg-puff.
Yes, I am hungry now.
So my mind won't stay low.
I need my chow and
That, you ought to know.
Hunger and poetry
Must be given a try;
Odd things and even ones
Sometimes make a good fry.
-----
Notes:
1. The yellow and white hued 'satin' was April's veil, which is part of her university's prescribed dress-code that is most annoying. No, April doesn't know what material the veil is made of; the word used here is purely for achieving poetical rhythm.
2. Now that she thinks of what food she actually wanted to sink her teeth into when composing this, April recalls that it was not a veg-puff, but was a samosa.
