Homework! Oh, Homework!

William very pointedly picked out this poem for copy work today...

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!
