Flawed System
I wake to start a busy day of school.
Today I plan to learn all that I can,
but learning all I can is not enough.
Wondering once again how to focus.
Again, I am here with no strategy.
What is the pathagrean theorem,
what is condensation and why does it matter?
I woke this morning to start a busy day.
Today I planned to learn all that I could.
My thoughts shifted to learning what I should.
I woke at 7am and "learned" til 5pm.
The classes are too short I find - and wow;
why must I split my time on chemistry.
But isn't math more important for me?
Time is running short and I wanna pass,
but I still have an assignment for typing class.
I'd really like to learn this foreign language,
will I be fluent in 4 semesters?
I'm starting to think I'm wasting time here.
I'm wondering if there is enough time,
can I catch up on my math work today?
I'd like to try but, wow, I'm running late!
I have to get to this PE class.
I'm starting to think the schedule's too thick
Perhaps the education system is flawed.
Or perhaps the day is flawed, short of hours.
Something wrong with this poem?
