Substitute
You left us busy work and a sub
We rewrote Oedipus the King
The back of your quiz made an exquisite canvas
We made Oedipus a time traveling cyborg
Who fucks the sphynx
Kills Apollo
Is put inside the womb of a poor jewish woman
Fakes his crucifixion
And then through a series of time traveling conundrums kills himself
creating a wormhole that swallows the universe
I got more out of that class
Than the three years I've had you
