Dear Torts

Due to popular demand, and also at gunpoint, I am to paraphrase Jai, 'airing' my torts poem.

And all the while my thoughts harke'd back
to torts; the best, and not contract
for though contract may well be clever
torts will have my heart forever
- Tom, despondent Torts lover


A long and squalid love affair
did with dear torts; dear Thomas share
disapproved by one and all
torts and Tom did still stand tall

and weathered all the fronts, alone
they faced the crowds with back and bone
embodied in a book? may be
but love for torts was dear Tom's glee

they journeyed high and journeyed low
until one day, behold and lo;
the end of the semester came
and with it tests; exams, and shame

and here this torrid love affair
did end in gloom and deep despair
for though in those weeks, Tom had grown fond
torts, poor thing, could not respond

the days were tough, the days were long
and still this love beleagured Tom
but torts was actually quite in glee
for now it was best friends with - Rosie!

Hehe yay productive law units!

Guys I never said that OK? Contract, we are still cool right? OK? OK!

(This is Tom. It was also Tom extra-parenthetically, and I think you should really have been able to deduce that yourself. GOSH.)

Shabash! But I do think the final couplet should be amended thus:

"but torts would rather quickly die
if it can not be friends with Jai."
