An A.P.* who was filling in
To
read aloud on Zoom
Just
grabbed a book his own kids faved
And
thereby met his doom.
The
second graders loved it
But
it didn’t make the cut
With
his boss, because the title talked
Of
needing a new butt.
The
humor’s aimed at children
And
describes, in certain parts,
The
different types of derrieres
And
also talks of farts.
Reluctant
readers sometimes need
Such
talk to be inspired
But
still, the one who read it
Found
out he had gotten fired.
This
happened while America
Was
celebrating reading
And
surely censorship like this
Is
not what kids are needing.
