Ode To Binns


Close your eyes
And then you’ll feel
The boring side
Of surreal.
Dragons, flying, magic
It’s oh so tragic
That with one word
We’re all so bored.

Staying awake,
Such a chore.
Paying attention?
"NO!"
‘cause you’re a bore.

Goblins this, goblins that
You’re as annoying as that cat.
Drone and drone and drone some more
Your class is great–for a snore!

Staying awake,
Such a chore.
Paying attention?
"NO!"
‘cause you’re a bore.

And, I must say
I’m not surprised
When Seth found you
No more alive.
And as he said,
That boy Seth,
"Professor Binns
bored himself to death!"
