Mcat Prep Poem by Monita Soni

I sat beside her

Legs outstretched on the coffee table

Wrapping the blankie around me

The first question was about Socrates

And his Gods

I got hooked by the phrase

They treated their Gods flippantly


The next question was about TV shows

The lesson learnt was that TV

Encourages passivity

Stay tuned

Raymond will be right back

I glanced at her curved cheek

Don’t look at me, she scowled

Use anti-dandruff shampoo, I made a mental note


We discussed short essays

Resolved to write a small paragraph daily

She is good my girl and is happy when

She remembers her enantiomiers

I learnt about stereotactic carbon molecules


We revised our Kreb cycle

Reaffirmed our faith in symbiotic life

Discarded the mosaic hypothesis and

Fell in love with the Regulatory model

It was a good visit

We spent some quiet time together

Like old times

Two sweet peas in a pod
