Bad Grad

By Gordon Hilgers

21st Century


You got a bad grade
on last week's assignment.
Honestly, pulling out a
cheat sheet and trying to call
on the cell phone when teacher
wasn't looking. Now
all the buildings have
fallen down. Some roosters
have perched downtown and look:

You got a D-, but an A for effort.
