Uncle Emil, a good man
through and through, knew school

Not from being there
but from watching those who had

Four years of university
and he still can’t milk a cow

Flat Earther Grade One

Don’t be silly
the earth isn’t round it’s hilly

But you can’t tell a teacher
with a marble
as round and blue
as my eyes that knew
that what they saw was true

so she taught
and taught till I forgot
but the hills were never the same
