Drop Out You Shall

At school played silly truancy, 
Back came with hateful pregnancy! 
She’d just intended The Irksome.
For being by custom troublesome’….

But it was all too venturesome, 
Beauty giving a son handsome 
Plus one more prize – The Sad Gift:
From school Owner did her lift; 
From the rest permanent shift, 
Official reason: ‘Spend thrift’…

Never again be present, 
As he would her sight resent.
