The admin just made the conclusion
It was time for the prompt exclusion
Of essays from school
Cuz it’s far more cool
To use limericks just to stir up confusion
And the students cried “oh why!”
For they knew that they couldn't apply
Limericks to all
Cuz they couldn't recall
Enough rhymes for sufficient supply.
Teachers are quick to provide explanation
They wont leave it up to interpretation
“We know AXES aren't fun
So frankly, we’re done.
Just be grateful you vile creation”
But the cries of the students only grow and louder louder
As they rhyme so much they forget to shower
Lindsey Picket can’t rhyme
And she’s running out of time
Will her class graduate without her?
“There’s hope for a future of poetic renaissance
But for this we need a positive response”
From students and staff,
So on admins behalf ...
...
...
Forget this, nothing rhymes with response!”
