The Worst Things About Middle School
My daily calendar
Middle school, middle school
the worst years of my life,
homework, detention,
you just can’t seem to survive.
The bus misses your stop,
you forget your gym clothes,
your backpack is so full
in five minutes it overflows.
You drop your books in the hallway
people randomly step on it
you hear the worst sound possible
— RRRIIIPPP —
You’re ten minutes late
trying to tape up your book.
Do you know detention face?
Ms. S gives you that look.
Suddenly, she calls on you,
you put your phone away …
the teachers sees, and says
“After school you will stay.”
Before you know it, the bell rings —
next, P.E., the worst of them all
you try your very best but still
you get hit in the face with a football.
After leaving the nurse you realize
“I don’t have a late pass!”
you run to the art room
but it’s the wrong class!
When you think the worst is over,
it just gets worse —
it’s as if someone has
put you under a curse!
As your friends walk to lunch
you head to an isolated place.
Its name: Lunch Detention!
You sit and stare into empty space.
When what seemed like eternity passed,
you finally go to science class,
the only subject you actually like
but today we sit and study grass …
“Well, that was fun,” you say
uh-oh; it’s period ten.
Most kids would be happy
but not me: I’m sullen.
Your worst subject: Spanish
You can’t even sing a song
as easy as the ABC’s!
(although it is quite long)
After 40 horrifying minutes,
the bell finally rings
you rush out the door
as the teacher still sings.
You quickly pack your stuff,
rush off to soccer practice,
but before you get out you see
prickly Ms. Smidis!
You try to run past her
but she holds her ground,
she grabs you and you hear
the absolute worst sound …
Detention!
Again…
