#YOWO


To only write once

Is every science major’s dream

To write once then no more

Would boost my self esteem.

For writing is not my academic forte

I stink

As some of my “haters” would say.

The reason I entered this contest of rhyme

Was to see if luck

would work in my favor this time.

So in the spirit of YOWO

I picked up my pen

To see if good fortune

would strike me again.

In the words of Shakespeare

I hath got much swag

Me thinks this contest is....well

in the bag.
