NaPoWriMo Day 8
Week 12 Wrap Up
Week 13 QQSL
It was a dark night at 19348 Manning Ave (Not a real address), but it was a special day. It was Otem's birthday! He gorged himself on the finest of foods giving none to his personal servants. Watching in pure disgust at the starving peasants groveled around his palace. He decided to go outside to go buy some more food. That was his first mistake. Suddenly out from the shadows, three Renard brothers appeared, surrounding him in seconds.
"Ahhh, protect me servants," Otem shrieked, trying to run inside his fortress, the servants had managed to block the first two Renard brothers, but the smallest one escaped. Otem tried to fight back with his bony arms, but he easily gets overpowered by the fighting spirit of the small Frenchman.
"Give away all your food to the peasants, or die!" Shouted the oldest Renard brother Charles. Charles and his French family decided to act as Robin Hood. Feeding the poor and stealing from the rich.
"Don't hurt me!" Shrieked Otem. Suddenly, out from the shadows, a strong, handsome, courageous, smart, and so, so, humble man appeared. It was the amazing, the cool, the smart, and the so, so, humble man, Lucas!
"Back off," Lucas declared, sending the Renard's backwards.
"Why are you protecting him?" Charles questioned, "he's not strong, handsome, courageous, smart, or so, so, humble. He laughs at the poor and treats them with disgust."
"It's the right thing to do, now run away!" Shouted Lucas.
"You'll pay for your treatment of the poor, Otem! In the next two days, you'll be a blog writer!" Shouted the second Renard brother, James. Blog Writing was a way of teaching people a lesson, forced to write five paragraphs while getting attacked by monkeys and piranhas! It was no place for a fragile being like Otem. The Renards scampered away and so did Otem, his fragile ego demolished. Lucas valiantly decided to do the blog instead of Otem, but unfourtunately he'd have to choose Otem the next day.
The next day we took a minute and read Ronan's amazing blog. Ronan talked about the traitorous acts of the Frenchman, Charles Renard! I was chosen and wrote about my tales of defending poor Otem. We wrote poetry and used this weeks quote "If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry." -Emily Dickinson, as a footnote to talk about our thoughts of poetry. Leo, the brave knight of this kingdom spoke in his deep voice, about how Poetry was pretentious. The last people came from watching the Solar Eclipse, as the teachers orchestra sung "Apple Tree" -Erykah Badu. We talked about comparing people to fruit and how if you don't like a fruit, don't eat it. This is a cool song that when delved deeper into, unveiled facts about human nature. The only person we control is ourselves! Whispers echo the classroom as the Teacher passes out the poem of the week. "Because You Asked about the Line Between Prose and Poetry." -Howard Nemorov. Charles reads the poem in his loud, French, voice. Otem tries using his brain for once, to try and figure out this odd poem. See, the title is about Pose and Poetry, while the lines were about eating in the snow. It hides the fact that just by looking, you can tell the difference between rain and snow: Which falls for the title the difference between Prose and Poetry, We're forced to take a grueling 10 page quiz about things that not even the great and humble Lucas can figure out.
I ace the quiz easily, as I jot down some poem ideas that come to my head. I make such awesome poems. We pack up, and start heading out of class. One, by one, as Otem stares at me in fear! I'm sorry buddy, but I must choose you.
