Just Jeering

Just Jeering:

What’s the view from the head of the class?

First Chair, Beware –

Limericked Peek at Class Oblique

Perhaps the pretty teacher’s pet,

Too petulant, yet never threat –

She led the class,

Jumped to surpass,

But was the first we might forget.

A century ago, she might

Have pleased instructors with delight,

But now it seems,

The stuff of dreams

Are young smart alecks impolite.
