New Strategy

Just when I thought I was worldly,
Everything seen by my eyes,
A reaction from a child appears,
And catches me by surprise.
The child had been referred to me,
For stealing another's tyre,
My patience was non-existent,
His enrolment was to expire.
As I tiraded around him,
Really, just at the start,
The child was so scared that,
He peeled forth a fart.
Not a quiet, timid type,
This was a full-blown roar,
He knew his world was ending,
And what his future had in store,
But the fart caught me off guard,
And as I scowled upon his face,
His flatulence distracted me,
And I forgot my place.
My heart was then not in it,
My anger faded fast,
I'd obviously made my point,
So I sent him back to class.

True story - I was going off at a student and he got so nervous he farted. I lost my train of thought and then my heart wasn't in being angry. Besides, I think I'd made my point by then.
