Homework! AGUH!
I was lucky enough to have some trusted friends beta for my current WIP, Psychopomp. It's mostly finished, but I'm working on incorporating the feedback before I do a final round (or two) of editing. So basically I'm doing homework.
Which brings me to this poem I wrote I don't know when. I'd have forgotten all about it if my dad hadn't compiled a binder of my old drawings, stories, awards, report cards, etc. I came across it the other day while using the binder's contents to distract my kids for a bit. As you may have guessed, the poem is called "Homework! AGUH!"
Homework! AGUH!I hate it! It stinks!I can't wash it down the sinks.I can't explode it to bits.I wish my dog would chew it up.It's giving me fits!Mom, Please, can I finish it later?No! You can't! Now hop to it!Bla, Bla, Bla!Finish it now!But I don't now how!Homework! AGUH!
Here's a picture (albeit one of crap quality) so you can see the glorious accompanying drawings.
Despite my dubious spelling of "ugh" or "aaagghhhh" or whatever the hell I was trying to spell, and the fact that I don't even think I had a dog at the time of writing, obviously I could have had an illustrious career as a poet. Besides this, I've also penned the phenomenal "The Hot Superstar Who Sang Slow Songs" and a limerick about a girl who falls off a horse. I'm telling you, I'm a literary genius.
Anyway, now I'll stop distracting myself with any old excuse for a blog post and get back to my homework. Which I don't hate! I've come so far.
