“A Crocodile ate my homework”
a poem by brian f kirkham in response to the writeclub prompt – “the most bizarre excuses”
The teacher looked at little Jim
with disgust and surprise
a reptile eating an exercise book?
what on earth had come over him ?
was he trying to get out of sir a rise
certainly not, with teeth marks reptile – on each page of paper
jagged tooth marks the pages took
the evidence there – this wasn’t a Caper!
