Day 155: Inspiration

A few months ago (and sometime last year) I was sent an e-mail called "What Teachers Make."  I only recently found out the name of the author of this poem (which was actually published several years ago).  If you've read it, you know how funny it is.  If you've not, then you are in for a treat.

I was sent a link for a video of the author himself reading the poem at an inservice.  Reading it online is one thing, but hearing it said by the author himself takes it to a whole new level. The author, Taylor Mali, is not only a teacher, but a comedian, performer, and slam poetry artist.  That said...

Sit back and hold on to your hats. 

Enjoy and be inspired!
