"My guy and I escaped from school" Poem

Kristina's Poem:
My guy and I escaped from school

My guy and I
Escaped from school
To tour the Emerald Isle
And even though the quarter started
We were still in denial

we'd just submitted all our work
for our portfolio review
and figuring we'd need a break
to Ireland we flew

The very first day we rented a car
a red cardboard box on wheels
a manual car with a gearbox so fucked
it sounded like 12 barking seals

We started in Dublin
and beelined all around the coast
stopping at every pub along the way
to celebrate with a proper Irish toast

But apparently Karma thought that we
bit off more than we could chew
On the 5th day I got food poisoning
On the 6th day he did too

Our road trip lasting 10 whole days
and countless miles and beers
a monumental trip it was
Our best trip of the year

Some say the the grass is always greener on the other side
But in Ireland the grass is literally greener
all cliches and kidding aside.

My guy and I
Escaped from school
To tour the Emerald Isle
and all in all, despite missed work,
it proved itself worthwhile!
