School Poem

I am a newcomer to poetry and this is my first time writing one. I am doing this for school, however, this is how I really feel.

Poems on school life are very interesting as they are very near to my heart. School is everything to me as I work as an educator. Bravo to the writer of this poem.

Proclamation Of Desperation

Published by Family Friend Poems March 2011 with permission of the Author.

I'm sitting in class, gazing into space
Contemplating on where I'd rather be
Counting each second till I leave this place
Is all this work really worth a degree
I go to the restroom just for a break
So much work, this is one gigantic load
There's only so much math that I can take
One more assignment and I will explode
Equations, word problems, can't you just see
How is a+b a part of my life
I think it's just irrelevant to me
I don't feel the need to be in this strife
I cannot wait until my freedom comes
I hope I don't become one of those bums
