Boredom

I sit down bored and twiddle my thumb.

I need to focus but my mind is numb.

What should I do besides just wait?

I need to write but I can’t think straight.

 

This is stupid; I want to be done!

Isn't homework supposed to be fun?

I have to say what I did tonight,

But I’m no good at writing, oh what a plight!

 

Well I better get thinking and start on it.

It won’t get finished if I just stay and sit.

Oh wait, I’ve finished I’ve got it won!

It seems by just moping, I got it done!

 

I’m finished with homework, I’ve done it all!

And the best part is I did it by trying to stall!

I actually wrote this poem when I was bored and couldn't think of what to write! Parts of the poem came to me and then I just wrote the whole thing up.
