An unexpected downside to extra time on assignments.

Untitled Poem

Mary wanted extra time in which to do her lessons,
And so her teacher granted it in each of her work sessions.
This extra time, as physics shows11 See post 654, means extra gravity
Which helped her lessons stick to her and ne’er her orbit flee.
But when her sessions ended and the extra time returned
The things that stuck to her fell down, and so did all she’d learned.
