Reading Papers at 10 in the Evening

by Sani Nassif (after Robert Frost)

Whose words these are I think I know.

But I think he’s published this before;

Perhaps at ICCAD last fall,

Is a third of it novel though?

The T P C chair should hear

It is his job after all

We do not want old stuff here,

He made it very very clear.

Let me see what DUDE prints out

Perhaps I am not being fair

I should know what this is about,

It is my area after all.

The papers are all in this big heap,

But I have many deadlines to keep,

And many to read before I sleep,

And many to read before I sleep.
