Poetry + Creative Writing + Stories = English class

Good news for the overworked student in my class,
For your final draft assignment I am giving you a pass,
No, you don't have to forget about it forever and ever:
I'm giving you one more day to make it extra clever.
It's due on Wednesday. I can already sense your elation.
No need to thank me, just give me a standing ovation.
I'm joking, I'm kidding, I jest; it's fine!
But don't think this happens every time you whine.
So the one thing for tomorrow that you've got to complete,
Is a (baseball)Cap for Steve, you can read it while you eat.
