I starved myself to sleep last night
Just to feel the poor man’s plight.
I slept on the pavement last night
Just to see if I could brave frost bite.
I ran into a wall last night
Just to feel the hindrance of might
Like a disposed little kite
Forced to stop in mid-flight.
I cut myself up last night
Just to see how it feels to get into a fight.
I fell on my face last night
Just to give my loved ones a fright.
I fell into a well last night
A space completely closed and tight
Where nothing but darkness comes into sight.
Just to see the world with no light.
I had a chat with a leader last night
Just to see if he was really that bright.
I toyed with a dog last night
Just to see if its bark was bigger than its bite.
I experimented with a prism last night
Just to make sure all colors did combine into white.
I looked down from a roof last night
Just to look at the world from that height.
I did things last night
To see all that is not alright.

Moonlight?
Well, yeah, it's at night, duh! :)
wah ustad! wah!
i mean moonlight...as opposed to sunshine....pun intended
@Mala: Thanku Thanku. *sharmaos
@"Anon": That was worse than an MJ.
i actually thought you would have recognized the pun before I explained it....
Yeah, but its completely out of context.
i am dumb :( I did not get the pun at all. Where is the pun?
nice poem :)
Thanks Ad Libber. Don't worry about the pun. You didn't get it because you aren't demented and didn't stop growing beyond the age of five, unlike "Anon" and me.
you did a lot of things "last night" but i would say you wasted the NIGHT. i am sure you know what i mean..
