The night is dark and daunting
The sun has gone to bed
Now everyone is snoring
As through the night I tread

I settle in my corner
Amidst my flimsy blankets
And hum a self-assuring tone
As I try to stay up

The clock hands tick on and on
Resisting the pull of slumber
Debugging projects lost in night
As I strive to stay up

My coffee-addled bloodstream
Resisting the pull of slumber
No matter...
