Heh. Does that paper still exist?
No, but at the time, I was working part time at a meatpacking plant, and one of the things that I discovered there was that next-to-NOTHING on the cow goes to waste. I captured that awakening with a poem I wrote and recited called "Ode to Bull Nuts". It began, "Oh, little footballs, once so potent..." The laughter of the students, the chaos that ensued, and the look on the teacher's face is something I'll never forget. And it was the next day that new guidelines came out for the class, lest anyone get the idea that copying my example might be fun - at least that's what I assume was the reason.
I basically undermined the whole premise of the class. It was supposed to be a free exploration of creativity, with no boundaries other than grammar. I demonstrated the vapidity of such an exercise for 16 year old kids. I forced the teacher to set boundaries, and then for the remainder of the semester, I pushed them to their limit.
The funny thing is, my poem was a perfect example to the letter of exactly what he told us he expected. I got an A for that assignment, and the class. But I was a thorn in his side.
Anyhoo, a few of the papers posted by Trap remind me of me.
