Nameless The Blameless, The Teen Poem by Elena Plotkin

Nameless The Blameless, The Teen



Behold, homework not handed in,
grades caught in a tailspin,
Who I ask 'Is at fault?
'Hee, Hee...Nameless the Blameless can't be caught.'

Behold, room all a mess,
a once clean floor seen less and less,
Who I ask 'Is at fault?
'Hee, Hee...Nameless the Blameless can't be caught.'

Behold, time passes and not a text or call,
walking in late like its no problem at all,
Who I ask 'Is at fault?
'Hee, Hee...Nameless the Blameless can't be caught.'

Behold, car keys missing and so is the spare,
no means to get from here to there,
Who he asks 'Is at fault? '
'Ha Ha, Nameless the Blameless just got taught.'

Elena, i must have been in a real hurry to have not left a longer comment earlier! i love the poem, and the humor in it. it shall soon be displayed with other PH 'friends' poems in January, section A of the usually-monthly showcase, hidden on my PH site. oops! this is the teen one, i just noticed! it WAS starting to seem more teen-like by the 3rd stanza. i DID read both already, apparently, Elena. ha ha. SO, I'LL GET THIS ONE INTO section B eventually. i'll use the non-teen one first, in Section A. in the last stanza, capitalizing he to HE would help readers to get the switch in....Who is at fault. but it is good and shall perhaps challenge readers to be careful readers. of course some may not be 'smart' enough to follow your thinking. i guess it was one of my smarter days when I read it! i especiallyenjoyed: Behold, car keys missing and so is the spare, no means to get from here to there, Who he asks 'Is at fault? ' 'Ha Ha, Nameless the Blameless just got taught.' ................and......great rhyming! a true story? ? ? for you? bri :)
