The second poem is written as a present tense monologue from the teacher who is trying in vain to take the register amid countless interruptions. It is brilliantly witty and entirely reminiscent of Joyce Grenfell's wonderful school teacher sketch. It uses the same device of the teacher replying to the comments of the other characters without the reader (or listener) being privy to them. It is all inferred by the monologue of the teacher. This is an example of a poem that really has to be read aloud (and in character), unless like me, you can conjure Joyce Grenfell's voice in your head! (For those readers who you don't know who Joyce Grenfell is, she was a comedian in the 40's and 50's and starred in the original St Trinian's films.)Shakespeare Schools Foundation Patrons".
