Tiger

Tiger Tiger, burning bright,
In the forests of the night;
What immortal hand or eye,
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?


In what distant deeps or skies.
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand, dare seize the fire?


And what shoulder, and what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? and what dread feet?


What the hammer? what the chain,
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp,
Dare its deadly terrors clasp!


When the stars threw down their spears
And water’d heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?


Tiger Tiger burning bright,
In the forests of the night:
What immortal hand or eye,
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

The Silliest Teacher in School

Our teacher gave detention to the fountains in the hall. She handed extra homework to the artwork on the wall.   We saw her point a finger at a banner and a sign. She said their bad behavior was completely out of line.   The principal approached her and said, “What is all this fuss? I heard you tried to punish all the tires on a bus.   “You’ve made the teachers angry by disrupting all their classes, so if you want to keep this job, you have to wear your glasses!”   By Darren Sardelli source: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/145940/the-silliest-teacher-in-school
