For some people this is a great place

A place of learning and great experiences

For me, school maybe the place that can get me to college

But great experiences? NO!!!!!!


School is not my happy place

A place full of homework, crowded halls and people that annoy you

Teachers give out stuff to do before a break, COME ON!

And after Geography or Science class, it a river of people in the halls with barely any room at all

Some of the people here (Mostly not you guys) can be a pain to be with in class


A lot of the time I spend here is thinking

How much longer until there is a break?

Will there be homework to do tonight?

These are the things I don’t want to be thinking about

I want school to be a place it was supposed to be


Education without all the hassle of homework

Plenty of room so not everyday is a push fest

Be with the people I want to in my classes


The place full of great experiences and memories

But at least for now, that, is not the case

This is my free verse slam poem about my feelings about my school that I go to. Some people love the school I go to, but I am not one of those people. I explain the many reasons why school isn't my favorite place to be.
