Be Cool, Stay in School

Every day at 9 o'clock,
To the hub the security guard will come to lock.
He wants us all to go on home,
So that he can peacefully jom.

Unfazed, we gather up our bags,
Our books, our pens, our body-building mags.
We all troop out to the void-deck,
Some to study; others to slack.

A few make their way to the bleachers,
Home to many night-time creatures.
In the dark of the night they bravely flip each page,
My, don't they all deserve a Red Badge of Courage.

Time flies by, and soon its ten,
All who's left are a few brave men.
Yangy, Amos, Hafiz and Jian Wei,
They're trying to wait til night turns to day.

Close to eleven, their books they keep,
Because its time to go to sleep.
Slumped on the tables they start to drool,
We should all follow suit- Be cool, stayover in school.
