Paddling Bully

(This is a fictional poem) In the seventh grade I had a bully for a teacher. He was ugly and he was indeed a horrible creature. He gave paddlings and that really got us kids annoyed. He smiled when he paddled because it was something he enjoyed. He gave over twenty paddlings a day. Even if we did no wrong, he'd paddle us anyway. One afternoon all I did was speak to a friend. My teacher hit me seven times on the rearend. It really hurt when he hit me with his paddle. A lot of kids don't squeal but I decided to tattle. I told my uncle who stands 7'3" and weighs 250 pounds. He said he was going to visit my school and that my teacher was going down. My uncle told my teacher that he had no right to paddle me just because I talked. Then he broke all of my teacher's limbs and he couldn't even walk. I got a new teacher and I said Hooray! My former teacher decided to stop teaching on that very day.
