See those eyebrows scrunch?
I'm not sure
But I do have a hunch!
Oh no! What to do?
Should I hit him first?
No! No! That's all wrong
And would be the worst!
Mom says, "Use that brain
For more than equations.
You need to be smart
And use gentle persuasion."
So I opened my mouth
To let out a yell,
Then got an idea
And pretended I fell!
No one got hit.
My problem was solved.
I felt such relief
When Teacher got involved!
