Original Submission for the Experiment and Tradition Module:
Blueberry Pie
A velociraptor enters my diner, shaking its head
it ordered a blueberry pie this morning
when he got it home he realized
it was undercooked.
I apologized,
feeling awkward while
it explained that today was his only day
off and now it was wasted.
I noticed that its claws were filed
To a blunt edge
It tapped them on the counter
while I boxed up another pie.
Apologizing again, I watched it leave
his tail swinging slowly
back and forth
still shaking his head.
Now with Gary's revision suggestions:
Blueberry Pie
A velociraptor enters my diner, shaking its head
it ordered (wrong verb tense or change "enters" to past tense) a blueberry pie this morning
when he got it home he realized
it was undercooked.
I apologized,
feeling awkward while
it explained that today was his only day
off and now it was wasted.
I noticed that its claws were filed
To a blunt edge
It tapped them on the counter
while I boxed up another pie.
Apologizing again, I watched it leave
[his](need that?) tail swinging slowly
back and forth
still shaking his head.
INteresting, Carol. There's medicine for velociraptor issuues. You don't need to suffer:) Again, review my comments and suggestions for direction.
