The Festival of Excessively Pointy Things
(Filed under: Traditions Invented at Lunchtime)
Emma, bored of walnuts and naps,
declared a festival in honor of all things sharp.
The rules were simple:
Bring something pointy.
Parade it before the Court.
Do not stab the Queen (again).
The parade began with spoons sharpened to spears.
Then forks, knitting needles, and one very enthusiastic hedgehog.
Bunny arrived last, dragging a chandelier.
“Does dramatically pointy count?” he asked.
Emma knighted him on the spot.
The Queen muttered, “This will end in bandages.”
Velin dipped his pen and whispered, “Already written.”
By dusk, half the Court had bandaged paws,
but the kingdom had a new tradition.
Margin Notes (Bunny):
“I demand Chandelier Jousting become annual.”
“The hedgehog won. Obviously.”
“Note to self: bandages as a budget line”
