A chapter in the book Thirty (hopefully) Poems for April

Smart Alec

by Debra White

 
he knew ev'rything
until it all went pear-shaped -
delib'rate mistakes
 
 




You know one too, right?! They're never wrong and even if they are, it's on purpose!

Smart Alec: an irritating person who behaves as if they know everything

Pear-shaped: to go wrong, to fail miserably, to go awry in a terrible fashion
