Problem Solving Strategies in High School: A Poem

[sleepsw/bear(Rick Stansberger)]

When Joey Liu’s little
radio-controlled
submersible devices
blew out the third-floor boys’ toilets

replacement suggestions abounded –
windows, waste baskets,
file cabinets, teachers’ desk drawers –

until someone ratted out
Mister Klinkel
who had his own
private john back in Guidance

“Hey! Klinkel’s busy for once!”
said one teacher to another
as they walked past the long line.

glad you posted this here----it's a kick-in-the-ass----but how was it Mr. Klinkel rated his own loo, anyway?----and how exactly would those toys blow out all the toilets?

It's funny, Rick, but the way it turns on the 'and' isn't doing it for me.
