Have you ever seen a place like this?
Situated in the middle of nowhere,
near the forest of trees,
Where the MD is called ‘KUKU’
Where a receptionist is now a TPO
Situated in the middle of nowhere,
in the silence of abandoned industries,
commute with only 'fatfaitya', please.
commute with only 'fatfaitya', please.
Where teenagers go to do engineering,
with all the hypes and hopes only to find
that their careers are gonna take a deep lope.
that their careers are gonna take a deep lope.
Where the freshers' party is always worth a watch
because every year it ends up in a brawl.
Shouting, screaming, swearing on your mom,
the chairman runs with a stick behind the mob.
'Very inspirational', the seniors say,
teaching us the ways to be and not to be.
So enjoy the ragging or at least pretend,
One day you will find yourself fixed.
Have you ever seen a place like this?
who's the so called MBA, but
everyone knows that he's an illiterate
everyone knows that he's an illiterate
who can't even spell his sorry ‘A’.
The Chairman is no less,
he claims he's a doctor
but on the AIDS day he lectures us,
"Use Condoms AFTER sex".
Musical nights are also worth a watch.
DJ is a one who plays
only Bhangra &. folk.
When everyone is ready to hit the groove,
a rope partitions the floor keeping
girls safe from the male whores.
girls safe from the male whores.
Rock performances have their way too,
A cult of 10 head bang in front, while the
thousand others feel disgusted with the tune.
Have you ever seen a place like this??
Where gals and guys are banned from sitting together,
not in the classrooms but in the canteen.
For the sake of protecting the sisterhood
someone's destroying their teen.
The love birds still find their ways
in the eternal ‘khopchas'.
It's a secret place to make love, people,
no one’s ever gonna catch ya!!
The lecturers enter the class and find empty chairs,
Unknown of the fact that somewhere in the campus
there are no empty chairs.
KUKU goes crazy and calls his battalion.
To all the problems, he pretends to be an alien.
While the guards shut the canteen down,
the daredevils jump off the walls
and the losers return to the halls.
Have you ever seen a place like this??
A night before the exam everyone plays Counter-Strike.
The other day everyone prays the deity for a Favor-Strike.
whose biggest achievement is
remembering KUKU's memo.
KUKU keeps hiring new lecturers,
ain't new though,
ain't new though,
who forgets the faces that ragged them so low ?
But KUKU is a dick-tator with a broom,
Students now realise that they are so doomed.
A few good companies come and recruit only a few.
The receptionist then dials a phone or two.
and gets the companies which request money for their loo.
While students introspect what went wrong,
While students introspect what went wrong,
it’s time to say to each other the last goodbye.
Lucky ones get ready to stuff their belly,
Others pack their bags and head to Silicon Valley.
10% of real placements will become 100% on the charts.
People will get impressed and donate with full heart.
KUKU will get richer, chairman the richest,
And this group of institutions will keep getting the biggest.
Crazy, isn't it??
It’s a vicious circle Mr. Ogden Nash,
And it hurts a little bit.
Isn't such a place worth a visit??
Well not for me because I m sick of it!!!!
That’s my alma mater.

@Jenee: Thanks for liking my poetry :). When you will come to India, i will take you to this place ;). Then even you will write about it :P
@Deepak: Well 'kuraiya' is one of the few good memories from our college that I will cherish :). But it would have been out of context here :P
@Shaunak: Thanks for dropping by buddy.Welcome to Subliminal verses :)
@Vishal: Haha.. I have spent 4 yrs of my life at this place. Haven't you?? ;). Thanks for dropping by, welcome to Subliminal verses :)
You aren't by any chance at my college are you? You have described it almost exactly! Except for one small detail, computers are banned at our hostel. Imagine that, no computers for computer science engineering students. Hehe... but we have our workarounds ;)

Hey i am seriously contemplating a ' I HATE KUKKU' page on FB or something... Lolzz. :D I wonder why he still makes my blood boil after 3 years!
Yah Aditi, I am gonna write soon, thanks to frnds like u who r continuously encouraging me to do the same :). Though i usually don't support the idea of 'Hating some1 publicly' but for Kuku just bring it on girl, i am sure that all the IETians will love it!! :)
