Homework

I think that homework is such a waste of time- you work for 6 hours at school then you come home and then you cant even relax because you have homework! Schools should do a better job of being able to get all the work that they need to get done while you are at school. Homework on the weekend is also silly because it isnt much of a weekend if you have to work!


Anyway- here is one of my favourite poems 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 simple can't see
why you even exist,
if you just disappeared
it would tickle me pink.


Homework! Oh, homework!
I hate you! You stink!
