Literacy Tests

Shakespeare would have failed Naplan, That was not in his cunning plan, Yes, his folks would have him tutored, To make young Billy become more learned, He would have lost all his homework, Billy so did not want extra work, Shakespeare, that teen scallywag, It was total fun, such a lad. Now Shakespeare is a wraith, Why, Billy, Why? Teens sayeth, As they serially fail literacy tests, Why not abolish that Billy pest? Tragic heroes and drama queens, That's the teens writing essays on such scenes, While Billy failed in literacy, Teens do sense such hypocrisy.
