Spring Cleaning - 2010

Matho Teacherus Babbleonia

It seems to hit almost at once,
From the moment they begin to talk,
Unfortunately, there’s no vaccine
yet engineered by that famous Dr. Salk.

I’d like to tell my math teacher
She bores me quite to death,
but the result would only be
one giant fat red “F.”

And so this incurable disease
will continue through the ages,
The only thing one can do is
blankly stare at the assigned pages.
