{Slice of life story
considered comedy too
I'll read it with you}


The sun rose up high
guided by Celestia
waking up Twilight.

Rolling over once
burying her head deeper
she was up all night.

Star swirl the bearded
was an intriguing subject
for late night study.

Was it two or three?
her eyelids sagging so low
admitting defeat.

Her head hit the desk
Bringing the world back to light
it was time for rest.

Admitting defeat
she had climbed into her bed
for a fitful sleep.

Now clinging the quilt
she blocked out the cruel sunlight
to ease her fatigue.

Spike trotted past her
wise not to disturb her rest
he went to get food.

Warmly snuggled up
she could stay here all day long
but she was not Dash.

Fifteen minutes more
half an hour was the worst case
and she would awake.

With one final dream
of a Rainbow Factory
and a yellow shed.

"Wow that was quite weird
I should not eat before bed"
was all Twilight said.

To perturbed to sleep
she decided to get up
and find some coffee.

With a clop of hooves
down twenty-two wooden steps
she reached the ground floor.

Into the kitchen
Twilight trotted and could see
a horrific sight

Spike had forgotten
to go to the marketplace
and buy coffee beans.

Sweet Celestia,
what have I done to deserve
a horrible fate?
