Stupid Pencil Maker Poem by Shel Silverstein

Stupid Pencil Maker

Rating: ★2.7


Some dummy built this pencil wrong,
The eraser's down here where the point belongs,
And the point's at the top - so it's no good to me,
It's amazing how stupid some people can be.

very good. We probably say that every day when someone does not have their head on straight. Like me some days.
