For English, I had to write a poem containing the line "I'm out of pants." I got a little carried away...
edit: We were supposed to pick our favorite line from a personal narrative of someone else in our class. So I picked the line "I'm out of pants," it being cleverly worded and in a crucial point in the story. Then our teacher said we had to write a poem on it... xD
The Pants Saga
A series of haikus
A flash of lightning.
People running in terror.
I’m here safe at home.
I sit and relax.
Suddenly, I realize that
My pants are outside!
My pants are trembling.
Hung up on the laundry line,
In the midst of storms.
Thunder! And Lightning!
Suddenly my pants catch fire!
Now I’m out of pants!
Shock. Then disbelief.
How could my beautiful pants
Be in such violence!
I cannot cope with
The sudden loss of my pants.
I cry all evening.
Even my night’s sleep
Is riddled with the suff’ring
Of innocent pants.
I wake up trembling.
I am feeling very ill.
My head is swimming.
I feel so empty.
I cannot live without pants!
I need my pants, NOW!
But they do not come.
I wail in my deep anguish.
Must find some relief.
A flash of light!
I know how I can get pants.
I steal my brother’s!
:D
