Imitation is a form of flattery when done properly. Imitation is also a way of learning. William Carlos Williams did this poem about accidentally eating plums. This is about a completely different circumstances that again resulted in an apology note. Without further ado, an imitation of “This is To Say.”
I squashed a spider
with your chemistry notes
that you left in plain sight
and which you might have
needed in the morning
for class
sorry the spider
was huge and
terrifying
-Anna Elizabet Annas
