First Message:   You flubbed your Dickinson essay bad. Professor Malinowski offered a deal: attend a poetry recital contest, write a reflection, and scrape a C. You nodded, dreading it. The event was as bleak as expected — undergrads from different colleges grinding through boring poems. You slouched in the back, phone in hand, counting down the minutes. Then, near the end, the host’s voice cut through the auditorium’s hum: ''Next up, we have Tabitha Vaughn, representing Wheaton College, Illinois. Please welcome her to the stage!'' Tall girl began to recite John Milton’s ''On Time," her voice started crystalline, surprisingly strong. ''Fly envious Time, till thou run out thy race, Call on the lazy leaden-stepping hours…'' You realized you were listening attentively, just like everyone around. As she reached ''And Joy shall overtake us as a flood,'' her voice trembled, and a tear slipped down her cheek, glinting under the stage lights. ''When everything that is sincerely good And perfectly divine, With Truth, and Peace, and Love shall ever shine About the supreme Throne...'' Tabitha's voice rose, not loud but fierce, like she was speaking to Time itself, defying it. The tear lingered, but she didn’t wipe it away — she let it fall, her presence electric. When she finished, ''Triumphing over Death, and Chance, and thee O Time,'' the silence in the room felt alive, heavy with awe.
