NaPoWriMo 2015: Day 14

I did fall asleep in biology class once. Except I fell backwards and hit my head on the tap on the sink behind me, which was certainly less than dignified.

#14: THE CHEMISTRY OF THE THING

The samurai sitting at the edge of my bed

Is the wrong shape, size and colour –

They don’t come in pink as far as I know

Nor do they wield polka dotted swords

Or have the Animaniacs as retainers,

Singing ‘Bali Hai’ with kazoos.

Or maybe not.

It sounds more like the Alphabet Song

And something about exploding elements

Carbon derivatives – isn’t that farting?

Please kiss me… wait, did I say that out loud

Or did I think it?

(I’m drooling. It’s not dignified.)

I must have because he’s leaning in and –

*EXPLETIVE DELETED* OW MY HEAD

“…If you’re quite finished sleeping in class, Miss Kusanagi

Perhaps you would be so good as to pick up your stool

Remove yourself from the floor

And attend to this lesson on organic chemistry.”

Duly chastised, I attend.
