Was it 12(g) that governed
My studies tonight
Use all my tools now,
Spread before me,
Or lose them later
Black’s, text, notebook
Pen, highlighter, laptop
Phone and federal rules
Coffee, Budweiser in a can
Bed, Pillow, desk, stiff chair, lamp
Glasses perched on my nose
Ticking alarm clock chattering
To my left,
Mocking me
Carpenter v. Dee
Complaint and Answer
Breach of warranty
Wrongful death
Dumb defenses
Joinder of parties
Of claims
Motions to dismiss here
Motions there
Surely,
One will stick…
Or not.
