Poetry fix:
Oh have you heard it’s time for vaccinations?
I think someone put salt in your tea.
They’re giving us eleven-month vacations.
And Florida has sunk into the sea.
Oh have you heard the President has measles?
The principal has just burned down the school.
Your hair is full of ants and purple weasels—
APRIL FOOL!
“Oh Have You Heard” by Shel Silverstein
