Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Lab Work

The pupil of the teacher is

Doing lab work upon a dupe,

Practicing the bag of tricks biz,

Hoping to do well to recoup

His teacher's confidence indeed,

In how the pupil's quick hands will

Interact so as to succeed,

Fooling the dupe with acquired skill,

Which the teacher watches as he

Very close to the dupe does stand,

Signals his pupil secretly,

As the two before in class planned.

Practice art of cheating the aim,

Part coin from dupe in rigged card game.
