I Don't Have My Homework

Many things that I should complete
send my homework into great defeat!
I rarely ever care at all.
I don’t believe I act a fall.
Always stubborn, you think I am.
But I’m not smarter than a ham.
It’s as clear as seeing the shore…
my excuses are not a bore.
Voldemort set my house on fire.
I hid in an old, tarnished tire.
I would have taken care of it,
but now in my desk, I must sit.
I strongly blame it on you,
for I didn’t know it was due.
It wasn’t up the week before.
I will not do a single chore.
My story chooses to go on.
I call it the new electron.
In my book, electric does move.
My worst nightmares get into groove.
My awesome friends whisked me away
for a fun, blissful night that day.
My new frenemy must admit
she threw me into a snake pit.
I dreamed about a flower seed…
into a witch, it changed at speed,
then, to an aggressive black bat.
I tried to whack it with a hat.
Instead, I fell all the way back.
All of a sudden, I heard crack!
Next, I fell to the filthy floor.
I was rushed through an open door.
Down the hospital hall I went,
as I felt cold air through the vent.
They properly worked on poor me.
Alas, I could not at all see.
They felt it was for my own good,
so there upon my face, a hood.
I was not able to do work.
Therefore, I soon went all berserk!
My parents asked why I was sad.
Maybe I had gone fully bad.
I tried, but could not do the sheet.
The fright in me grew like a beat.
My tears were the destructive cause.
Why, my rested brain did applause,
for it was given time to sleep
and my mouth did not make a peep.
The following terrible morn’
I ate disgustingly sweet corn.
All over my ditto, a mess,
for I was trying to play chess.
During my walk to the bus stop
I heard a familiar sound…pop!
Bubble gum covered my zipper.
Unable to open flipper…
It forbid me to take it out,
so I decided to just pout!
