The School Cycle
I have so many math problems I should be doing
but I had a bad day and I can’t stop crying.
I have an essay I should be writing
but I took two hours to do sixty math problems.
I have a chemistry experiment I should be researching for
but my head is throbbing as I write my essay.
I have an art project I should be finishing
but I still have to finish my research.
I have photos for photography I have to take
but I still have to paint my art sculpture.
I have to go to softball practice
and I haven’t eaten dinner yet.
I have to write an article for the newspaper
but I’m tired from practice and have to finish my photography.
I have fifteen charts I need to make for computer tech
but I didn’t finish my newspaper article.
I have an SAT I should be studying for
but I need to finish the charts.
I studied for my SAT for two hours
and now it’s two in the morning.
I’m trying to fall asleep
but I have a throbbing headache.
I walk into the bathroom
and I chug down some Advil.
I plop back down on my bed,
and wait to repeat the process tomorrow.
