Back Into The Classroom Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

These are the best years of our lives lived.
Even though those who have deceived with their lies,
To be admonished are astonished...
By the results of their own deceptions.

And they are the ones demanding truth be told.
With a request to keep their delusions on hold...
Until a confirmed hiding place for them to go,
To identify the definition of facts is determined.

With wishes and hopes that time gives an opportunity,
To slowly adjust to a digesting period.
That will allow a benefit of fresh fantasies to make,
As recessed debates take place that will erase the waste.

'Okay kids.
Back into the classroom.
And get under your desks.
A forecast of an Earthquake has been predicted.'
