I’ve tried so many different lines
and written words on top of words down on this sheet.
But i’m about to have a break down
if this Wednesday evening shakedown
causes other class’ work to be incomplete.
It says, “having a blast”
but alike examples are all escaping
and this newly-prepared poem
looks like a bottom-feeder’s scrapings.
How can I use “bone dry”
in a sensible sounding sentence?
I tried to do this as a poem
and now all i feel is repentance.
Is a measuring cup a gerund and noun?
How can I make a sequence
of smoothly electric adjectives
balancing clarity and infrequence.
Is this poem better
than the poems of my peers?
I learned that “the election politics
are annoying for people” this year.
Whats that have to do with this?
I still haven’t figured that out.
But wikipedia said, so it must be true!
Please don’t nominalize “argue”
or whine or cry or pout.
Do you know who is actually
a better poet than I?
Realistically everyone
but i like it
and furthermore, I try.
Poems are often fun
when you don’t have to sift through information.
But if i don’t post something soon
James’ll kick me out
for my insubordination.
I’m almost done this poem
though it may not make much sense.
So Kendrick let me sleep in class
know I’ve tried my best
in my defence.
I wish someone
would do all this work
and just give me the A
but teaching people to fish is better
then buying them a McFillet <—(sarcasm)
I guess i’ll sit here moping
while crying out, “why me?”
Screw the last two lines
I don’t feel like doing
a metaphor or simile.
