The Teacher
©1991 Susan Noyes Anderson
Well here I am, right up
in front of the class.
She has picked me again.
I did not even ask.
That’s three times
she has chosen me.
Three in a row.
I’ve stood up here three times
in a terrible row.
Up and down. Up and down
like a stupid yo-yo.
Down and up. Down and up.
Do you think this is fair?
Maybe next time I’ll tell her
I’m stuck to my chair.

I guess we all have teacher troubles now and again, but this guy seems to have really had enough!
