Sweating Through School!!!

Homework, friends, no time to spend, watching TV or being lazy. Assigned to work, no choses for you, but TOUGH cookies all the pressures on you know who! Tests, quizes, and exams, the teachers say 'SHAZAM!' Think they know how hard it can be, on one who is always busy?! NO! 5 pages of notes to copy down 'it'll take two minutes, no sweat' they say! HELLO!! we are DIEING overhere anyway! 5 pages of notetaking, an essay you must write, and don't forget about all that homework for tonight! The powerpoint that must be 56 slides, is due today, but I forgot to do that anyway! That song you must compose that has to be meant for the sapranos, happens to be in your desk, along with the rest on your info. for the test!(it happens to be open notes!) For Spanish you find out you grabbed the wrong book, and you must look at the example that's in YOUR BOOK! Then comes the hardest part of your day, returning home to hear your mother say..... "Hi honey, how was YOUR day? Got a little bit of homework?" You just sigh and say forget it anyway!

Thank you for sharing your poetry Elizabeth. Poets here offer such diverse writings and to me it is a pleasure to read each and everyone. I will not be here at the Soup to read from Friday through Monday. I hope you will find mountains of inspiration during that time. I look forward to reading when I return. Have a great weekend. Love, Carol
