Geometry Teacher, Kenneth Pobo

I’ve always taught that the shortest distance
between two points

is
a
straight
line.

Such a truth never made me
happy, so I drank
and downed cylindrical pills.

Eventually the principal,
Mrs. Adair, fired me.
I wasn’t a good example.
I became a rhombus—
until my lines

broke. Now
even triangles avoid me.
