Its that time of year
when the teachers pullout the stops
to test our resolve
with those infernalmocks
But let us take stock
and consider the mock
In isolation it isnothing
a pitiful test
but once in a group
makes us question
can we still do ourbest
A single mock is but asprout on a plate
tolerable when alone
But a plateful makes usquiver
scared to the bone
But a sprout will come
and a sprout will go
and with mocks sharethe season
with HO HO HO
Mock the mock
do not feed it withfear
next week it will begone
out on its ear.
