Never Try to Steal a Witch's Purse

Never try to steal a witch’s purse,
or she may threaten to put you under a curse.

I told the witch, not to bother,
someone already had that honor.

I was cursed by none other than my teacher,
who by the way was a much scarier creature.

My teacher cursed me to a weeks worth of homework,
not to mention all that added schoolwork.

The witch laughed and couldn't believe
that a curse existed to this horrible of a degree.

The witch decided to come with me to school,
to see for herself if it was indeed cruel.

After a day of English and Math,
she agreed school was worse than giving a monkey a sponge bath.

At the end of the day, the witch gave me her purse
and told me that indeed school was worse than her curse.



--Luis V. 9
