Making The Grade

A Poem by Pete
"

true story

"
they had just started bringing in hot lunches at grammar school
mighty mort's they were called
one day it was a hot dog and beans
sharon the tattle-tale, missing a tooth, with crossed eyes and glasses was sitting next to me at our desks
she peeled back the foil of her meal and discovered that she had two hot dogs
she picked up one of them with her plastic spork
for only one, she announced she had paid
as she went running up to the teacher to inform her that a serious mistake had been made
