What I’d Cook for My Teacher (rhyming poem)
by Bruce Lansky

If I cooked hot lunch for my teacher, (A)
I would start out with rattlesnake stew. (B)
Then I’d serve her a centipede salad (C)
And a tall glass of milk mixed with glue(B)
Next, a seaweed and jellyfish sandwich (D)
For dessert, an a-chooberry pie.(E)
When my teacher finds out what she’s eaten, (F)
I hope the old bat doesn’t die! (E)
