Matt’s lament…
February 1, 2009It is almost 10:30pm on a Sunday night and Matt has yet to finish his homework and post it online. (It’s due by midnight.) This sums up his feelings about his homework:
Homework! Oh, Homework!
by Jack Prelutsky
============
| Homework! Oh, homework! I hate you! You stink! I wish I could wash you away in the sink. If only a bomb would explode you to bits. Homework! Oh, homework! You’re giving me fits. |
||
| I’d rather take baths with a man-eating shark, or wrestle a lion alone in the dark, eat spinach and liver, pet ten porcupines, than tackle the homework my teacher assigns. |
||
| Homework! Oh, homework! You’re last on my list. I simply can’t see why you even exist. If you just disappeared it would tickle me pink. Homework! Oh, homework! I hate you! You stink!

I like spinach.
Apart from that, I concur.
Amen.
