In my senior year of high school, I had a "Creative Writing" class. Our "Next Big Project" at the time was anything but big for even those you preferred to not do their work. We had to write ten "journal entries" that could be literally anything that you wanted as long as they were school appropriate and at least half a page typed. Yes, they could have been double spaced and in huge font and still count as long as all that equalled to half the page. Anyway, one of his suggested topics was "a list" so I wrote him "A List." Well, a story in a list form. I think it is a poem though. I poetic story in list form.
