Microwave

Your honor, I’ve a case to plead, My microwave has lied to me. I know it seems a minor crime, But I swear its worthy of your time. I was late to school that day, I had thrown my clock away. I had to rush, I could not lag, I threw my books into my bag. I needed to make lunch with ease, I grabbed a frozen block of cheese. I set the dial for heat and run, The microwave said it was done. I put it in between some bread, My poor sandwich looked quite dead. I thought it would be thawed in time, For lunch today at ten to nine. Class was done: 8:47 Lunch would last until 11. I went with my friends out to the yard, My sandwich seeming strangely hard. I took it out and took a bite, The cheese then put up quite a fight! It gave my teeth a sudden strain, Causing me surprising pain. So this is how it is you see My microwave has injured me, I now have pain in teeth and face, And therefore sir I rest my case.
