Somewhere Else

It's workshop day, so I am not in school.  I have the email and the smart phone, but am foregoing the Web cam.  

Gone High Tech

You may have noticed, teacher,

I am not in school today,

But the remote mike on my desk,

Will record each word you say.

Switch on my laptop’s Web cam

When you have something to show,

And if you pass out homework,

Find my fax number below.

I’ve e-mail and a smart phone,

So I won’t be hard to reach.

Since I don’t need to be in class,

I’ll do lessons at the beach.
