Poetry: School

by Lime Blue Cube

Created on: August 07, 2008

Twas 6:45 and so sleepy was I,

I felt I could lay down and quietly die.

Although I just wanted to stay there and rest,

I had to get up for a big social test.

We had a pop quiz in the class of math,

I had to do well or I'd face my dad's wrath.

What is the decimal of three out of four?

All of those fractions were simply a bore.

Came period two in the class of L.A.

The second most boring part of the day.

With ballads and limericks and haikus as well,

I thought to myself, "I must be in hell."

In period five, I was counting to dix, <->

She was letting me copy, her name: Sarah Li.

Twas 1:59 and so worried was I,

I looked to the door and saw a large guy.

My hopes were then dashed as I stared at our guest,

twas my dad, and I had flunked the test!
