Minichu

He said it was a Minichu I said “it’d fit inside a shoe” He said “there’s new rules That you must heed” “Oh God,” I sighed “it’s a whole new breed” No teachers here Know how to teach it I’ll have to trap it Train it, leash it. Fact is that’s not the “math I’m after” In search of rowdy, raucous laughter.

If it's rowdy, raucous laughter you want, you get it from me. Does a Minichu live in one of those balls that the kids battle with in the cartoons. Perhaps a smaller version of a Peekachu.

“Its not the math im after” as a deep thinker i perceived that in so many ways! Clever and creative write that also is a fun read. You have a way with making your readers smile! So refreshing to read this. I was always a rule breaker in high school. Are minichus some sort of a form? Loved this

Well doggone it, John you had me laughing through it all. Not at all what your title promotes, but therein lies your cleverness.
