Fresher\'s Lament

Four hours left, three empty cases The Dean’s denouement yesterday Transient crap in random places All out by 10 on Saturday. Better not to bring it all, Explode it out, stuff it back in too late, and now a final call ‘till next term’s packing game begins. Frantic effort, heart is beating, “Laundry doesn’t do itself,” Satsumas, erstwhile healthy eating, Abandoned somewhere on the shelf. Will my scout always dislike me For leaving carnage in my wake? Blame short terms, University For a pant-festooned packing earthquake.
Notes:
Packing to go home - what an effort!
