Today in our magical class of human geography, Mr. Schick
talked about a poem called “A message To Garcia”. The poem was a giant metaphor
about how lazy people are and how they are becoming lazier. The poem was written
by Elbert Hubbard. The poem started out about how the president needed to get a
message to Garcia on Cuba. No one would do it except for a man named Rowan.
Rowan was an example of how some people will do any job to the best of their ability.
Then he used a metaphor about asking a servant to find a book and all he made
was excuses about how he couldn’t do it. Then while Mr. Schick was reading it
he kicked the stool across the room. After that we spent the rest of the class
talking about how natural selection worked. So otherwise we had a pretty
productive class time. Time well spent.
