Our teacher, though openly gay,
Had an authoritarian way.
He'd mince down an aisle
With a menacing smile,
And none of us dared disobey.

If you're used to a nice leafy view,
You're likely to get in a stew
When builders come round
And level the ground
Where flowers and shrubbery grew.

A grievance, if zealously nursed,
Can motivate murder at worst.
The most gripping plays
Examine the ways
Such vengeance is planned and rehearsed.

Our ancestors feared to espy
Uncommon events in the sky.
From all that we've learned,
We are now unconcerned;
We pass such phenomena by.

I went for a tankard of ale
In a picturesque pub in a vale.
A tapestry showed
The Yellow Brick Road,
Which was nice, but the food was all stale.
