Seven Cruel Hours Of Our Lives

Seven Cruel Hours Of Our Lives

A Poem by Faust
"

I know, before you even say anything, that most schools are in session for 8 hours. But then it wouldn't spell out SCHOOL. So I decided to take out an hour for lunch. Now it is 7 hours :P

"
I don't get it. 
I don't understand.
If I somehow pass this class, I'll be damned.
English is too complicated.
Math is always something I've hated. 
I don't know when I will ever need science.
I don't care about knowing how to analyze appliance.
Reading seemes like a thing only to do for fun.
And in P.E, though you are moving, there is nowhere to run.
I am so done with this hell we call school.
Here with these teens who will never think me as cool.
I'd rather spend my days hiding in my room.
For all I care, my bed could be my tomb.
In this rhyme I've decided to write,
I decided I must reconsider my choices for a future so bright.

Author's Note

Faust
Thanks for reading :) This is something that I've just written on a wim. I haven't written poetry that rhymes in awhile and thought I'd give it another shot. They are hard to write (for me at least) but I think it's worth it in the end because I usually like how they sound when I'm reading them to my 6 year old cousin. (I only read to her the non depressing stuff of course)

When I think of classrooms I often in my minds eye I sketch a laboratory where a small group of chimpanzees are strapped to some classroom chairs. They are facing a video screen and projected on it are images of chimpanzees being eaten stalked and killed by predators ensuring that they are aware of their own mortality. Yes dear Emily I didn't like school very much myself LOL nice rhyme and flow to this

I can remember feeling similar about school. Now I look back on school days and smile. That old saying about school days being the best in your life, certainly has some merit, although at the time you don't appreciate it. Nicely penned Emily.
