No Trespassing!!!!
~A Poem for The Full Moon Poetry Challenge~
The following poem is based on an unsettling dream that I had a while ago! I hope that you enjoy it! ๐
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
An elderly office assistant says:
"Remove yourself from this attendance office at once, you imposter."
"For I've scanned the graduation list several times, and you are still not on my roster."
"Furthermore, your attendance file and university grades do not exist!"ย
"Tell me. How many days of college have you actually missed?"
*
I say:
"Only two days this school year, ma'am."ย
*
The office assistant says:
"I don't believe you; you're no innocent lamb!"
*
I say:
"Can we continue this talk later?"
"Right now, I have a big math test."
*
The office assistant says:
"You haven't earned the right to be here; you're becoming a huge pest."
*
I say:
"There must be some mistake."
"My English 431 teacher, Miss Avery, can vouch for me."
*
The office assistant says:
"Hush, child!"
"Miss Avery passed away eight years ago."
"English 431 is now taught by Professor Lee."
*
The office assistant adds:
"Frankly, I have no more time for your lies!ย
"Back to freshman year of high school you must go!"
*
All I can think, as I'm dragged out by the police, in handcuffs, and booked for trespassing is:
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" "Noooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Dear Vocal Media: You have brightened many a dreary day, afforded me the opportunity to meet many beautiful souls from across the globe, and provided me with a fun distraction from grief therefore I am very grateful for you. But, I'd love to see the following Christmas wish come true. I've written it in the form of a poem below.

Verdict In a Minute
This article serves as an index for my series of courtroom drama stories. I started out with the first story for the Just A Minute challenge and realized, prompted by Hannah Moore, that it could be told from different angles and perspectives of various characters.

I didn't see that coming! I love the twist. GREAT job!
The good old "back to school" dream! I can totally relate to this. Great poem, Tiffany.
Ahhhh! dreams. Who are we without them.
It's crazy how our minds conjure up these crazy scenarios. I'm sure you were relieved after you woke up knowing you weren't going to jail, lol. I loved the poem. Thanks for sharing.
That wouldโve been unsettling for sure, but reading about it in this piece was really well done. It made me chuckle and I really enjoyed it ๐
This is a very interesting dream. I would have been unsettled by it. However, you added a bit of a humorous twist in the way you presented it in the poem. Great job!!!
Omg it sounds like it must have been a stressful dream but reading about it is quite funny!
Funny twist, but more of a nightmare
๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ crikey!
Thatโs not a dream, thatโs a nightmare lol. Nicely done Tiffany.
๐ฎโค๏ธโโโโโ
An excellent nightmare! Love it!
Oh!! ๐ ๐ ๐ Those dreams about not finishing school are something else!! ๐ ๐ Well done!
Haha oh my!
Oh, I would be screaming too if I had to go back to high school!!! Great work and loved the rhyming :)
Oh my God, I have had a similar dream about graduation! Well done!
Whoaaa! Being handcuffed and arrested isn't as scary as being told that my attendance record and my grades doesn't exist, lol!
Definitely one of those puzzling dreams lol interesting
Lol. This is great
Fantastic!!! Love it๐๐
This is great, Tiffany. Very well done.
Excellent challenge entry and very crazy and disconcerting
