Poem: Test

January 27, 2021
My alarm clock is going off early
I’m sitting here trying to wake up
Got chores to do before schooling
My desk is a mess I need to re-setup
The schedule is rotating every day
I’m sitting here trying to remember
My Chromebook is dead, what did they all say?
My computer’s slow, I need it to restart
I’ve got class in half an hour
I’ve got to load up all my tabs
The dogs are being so darn loud
And my Internet is being really bad
Diagnostics
Calculators
SIS grades
“There’s no teacher-”
“I am so lost, no directions”
“There’s not enough time to complete this test-”
What’s the homework? “Write it down!”
I’ve got too many notes to keep any track of
The phone is ringing really loud
I have to study for this quiz
So many classes
No homework passes
SIS grades
No connection!
“I am so lost, no directions”
“There’s not enough time to complete this test”
