Tardy
October 1, 2014
My dad comes into my room to get me up.
I twisted I turn but I still don’t get up.
He pulls and tugs on the blankets until they come off.
He yells and shouts till I get in the shower.
After the shower I fall back asleep.
My dad comes back in when its time to leave with my hair all wet and cold as ice.
Then its about six fifty.
When I get to school the first bell rings.
As I get one foot into the classroom the tardy bell rings an dings.
The Teacher points to the door an sends me down to the office.
