spell creation

The boiling water smelled of scone
creation
The purple liquid smelled of sudden
death
The orange ball smelled of burning
rubber
The green bugs skittered leaving scents of
candy as they boiled
At last I smelled it
my anti-homework potion was ready

The Option

For I will consider the option
On one end, it is sweet like ice cream
for the other bitter as can be
for it is left to me
which will it be

How to know you’re a nerd!

You know you’re a nerd when you’d rather stay
home watching movies, playing video games, or reading
rather than going out with friends
You know you’re a nerd when you smell smoke
and think “Not my computer,” “Not my books,” or
“Oh no! Not my movie collection!”
You know you’re a nerd when you answer to “Hey Nerd!”
with “Yes? Oh by the way, thanks for the compliment!”
