Well, to be fair, we were asked to write a Shakespearean soliloquy and Shakespeare does not generally provoke many belly laughs, in me anyway. So perhaps humour wasn't paramount and my line about "I thought the princes were on holidays in Weymouth" wasn't what was called for.
On the plus side, I was more than pleased with my final poem (like John, I can't do blank verse) and I also learned a bit about Richard III in case he ever comes up in a pub quiz.
