Sh*t You Can't Say to Your Teacher: A Rant About My Terrible Day

Location

Teacher, Teacher!

Can’t you see?

These big bright lights are bugging me!

 

I woke up early,

Did not eat,

So my hair’d be curled, nice, and neat.

 

I took the bus,

So full of gum,

A piece under the seat got stuck to my thumb.

 

And when I got to school,

Too early to care,

My crush had his hands in my best-friend’s hair.

 

When I went to eat,

My lunch at noon,

I had packed a yogurt, but had no spoon.

 

When I got to PE,

Late of course,

I found I’d bled through my cheerleading shorts.

 

And just when I thought,

The day couldn’t get worse,

You gave me an essay for tonight’s homework.

 

So thank you, Teacher,

For making my day,

Even better, with the addition of your wonderful essay!
