Little lost student

by joetwo

There in the lab

On a Wednesday Morning

I heard a loud crash

And a shout of warning

#

I raise my head

And I see smoke

“He’s done it again

This is a real joke!”

#

He is a young student

Just a fourth year

Empty of mind

And drunken with beer

#

We figured it quick

So he’d not hurt himself

Just to give him the save stuff

On his own little shelf

#

But somehow this moron

Started a fire

With years of work

Lost to the pyre

#

But we put it out

A lot we did save

But we then had to deal

With this undergrad knave

#

Our sentence was humane

Got him out of the lab

To endanger others

Which we thought was fab
