The protagonist as part of the story will be joining a private school near his new home.The Headmaster of the school is quite a character.Known for being an outspoken man of keen intellect and a staunch defender of the First Amendment,Headmaster Paul will be "the moral lighthouse"for our dark and troubled young protagonist.The Headmaster considers himself quite the poet and has the reputation for reciting his latest work at any given time and place.The faculty and most of the students do admire and respect him but the poems have a tendency to set alot of eyes rolling.Here's one for you to indulge yourself with:
She is a Mere Figment of the Poet's Fancy
Her lips are like a lovely song that ripples as it flows
Her lips are twilight water
Her mouth is as sweet as a ripe fig
Her neck is like a stately tower
Her stockinged feet hold me in wonder
Her sweetness halting like sunny day
Her voice cuts like a knife
Her voice also is rich and vibrant like a cello
And I consider myself a lucky fellow
Please hold all applause until the end of the book..........
For those interested I am using pieces from the book:"Fifteen Thousand Useful Phrases" by Greenville Kleiser
