89. by Sarah Herman

       
Evil is this number that envelops my mind,
Its octa-non ways search to find,
Grateful memories of happy grades.
Homeworks, tests, quizzes deserving of praise.
These cruel two digits hunt like a chimpanzee,
Yearning for a bite of my well-deserved ninety.

Naive shalt I cower in fear my dear!”
I fear this may be the end of my educational career”
Ninety am I, your dark night in shining armor!”
Execution awaits me if I do not make the roll of honor”

Intently their eyes meet,
Ninety knocks his nemesis of his feet.

Even that B+ could not kill our love!”
Not with the literary Gods shining on us from above!”
Generously I risked my life for you but now I must say adieu…”
Lovely ninety where must you go?”
I need to be entered into Ms. Whalen’s computer by tomorrow”
So sad it is to see my hero go on this dangerous spree”
Happily though, you got your ninety”
