She Was the Worst of the Worst Kid
She was the worst kid, the worst of the worst.
The teacher tried to quit the first day after she put her through hoops and paces
And dunked her head in a toilet.
This was not her first teacher.
This was her fifth teacher.
The others had all given up their teaching licenses,
Preferring to drive school buses without her in them.
They had spent almost a whole semester with her.
She was that good.
Most teachers she had gone through
Went out on FMLA before Christmas break.
Called winter break now to satisfy everyone.
Except me.
I still call it Christmas break.
Queen of the worst kid ever contest, she was a pro.
Unfortunately, this also happened.
She was deeply revered and respected by frightened classmates.
