Analysis of Mickee Dee’s all-nighter
Students gang up here
All night in studies/laughter
April papers, exams
Bunch of crams.
Bunch of hopefuls.
Bigger debt fed.
Burger, fries fed.
Career ideas, Daddy led.
Lots of theory.
Hands on, where?
Two guys sport their
Sweat shirts rare:
“The Sleepless Tour.”
Smiling, still up, there.
Unshaven. Now that’s a ritual.
Girls snicker. Pull on their Cokes.
