The BBD

There was once a hall monitor

Who was often called the BBD

He was infamous among many students

As he gave detentions for no reason

What did you ask?

Yes I did encounter the BBD

In fact it wasn’t pleasant indeed

It all began my sophomore year

I happened to be in the hall

Waiting to go home in my dad’s car

Tired of waiting I had opened my mouth

For a yarn

But out of the mouth of another student

Came a phrase that summoned the BBD

Suddenly a cool damning mist filled the hall

And out of the door leading to the basement

Leaped the BBP

Boy I tell you I’ve never seen anyone leap so swiftly

Within seconds he had grasped my arm

With the strength of a man trying to strangle a bear

By then my expression had said it all

I regret being down that hall

Trembling with fear

Deeply deprived of my cheer

I let out a shrieking gasp

That’s when a voice

As the sound of death itself

Proceeded out the mouth of

This vile being spewing evil accusations against me

Till this day I have no clue what the creature meant

Though he seemed badly disturbed

However he did live up to the rumor of being

A rude hall monitor second to none

A pointless servant getting paid

To slaughter the academic integrity

Of all students younger than he

“Detention!" he yelled

“It wasn’t me" I quelled

“You liar” he stated

“I’m an innocent man” I debated

“It was someone other than me”

“Alright, I’ll let you go this time”

But before I do, I’ll leave you with one last line

“Don’t mess with me cause I’m the BBD!”

Till this day I’ll never walk that school hall

For there may be some naïve student

Not knowing any better that may sound the call

Of the BBD next time I stroll down that hall
