The Sciences In The Jars

Teacher had a special experiment that day

He brought four jars and held four worms at bay

Experiments were customary but none were like this

Science was suddenly taking a pleasing twist

Come young scientists, he said, observe with me

I have placed mud in jar 4 and in jars 1 to 3

Ethanol in the first, smoke in the second and sperm in the third

Now you can all repeat for me what you have just heard

Class in unison were able to say

Everyone was paying attention that day

So the teacher said here is what I will do

I’ll place a worm in each of the 3 and in the 4^th jar too

Now I will cover them and overnight they will stay

Then we‘ll see what happens when we return in one day

He left them there and the class was dismissed

Everyone returned and observed and here is the gist

Jars 1 to 3 the worms died but not in jar 4

And the teacher looked around the class and stopped at Ossie Moore

Right Ossie what do you deduce, speak in your own terms

Sir "As long as ya drink, smoke, and have sex, ya won't have nuh worms!"
