Revision, revise, revised

A switch in tense

Not too intense

Place a period here or there

Alter, adjust, amend

Is your thesis statement clear?

Should it be moved here?

Easier said than done

Correct, change, check

Don’t be vexed

It isn’t too complex

Remember your audience and voice

Perfect, Progress, Proceed

Do my paragraphs flow?

 Is my research thoroughly thorough?

Keep MLA by your side

Review, Reconsider, Reassess

Don’t forget to cite!

The end is in sight

At long last my paper’s revised!
