the teacher
expounded on the value of the tree
"Isaac Newtown
discovered the law of gravity
under an apple tree;
the Buddha gained nirvana
seated under the Bodhi tree
Children -
what can we extrapolate from this? "
"It's obvious, teacher, " said a smarty-pants kid
"class is useless -
for if they'd been seated in a class like us
they'd have remained ignorant"
