                                  It’s Friday night
Calc test on Monday
                                                                    I’m going out
                                 I’ll be up all night
Problem after problem I practice
                                                         Shot after shot I take
I’m worries about my grades
                                                  I’m worried about the cops
                            My parents would kill me
If I fail my test
                                                                   If I got caught
So I have to keep studying if
I want to get into a good college
                                                              So I’m not driving
I’m nervous for college---------------------I can’t wait for college
                                                                   All the parties
All the homework
                                                             All the new people
All the labs
                                It’s Saturday morning
3 am creeps up on you like
A killer in the dark of the night
                                         Head spinning like a top nonstop
I close my books
                                                                I drop my drink
                             It’s Saturday afternoon
I awaken in my bed
                                                          I get up off the floor
                 I had a long night, time to prepare for more.

This is a spoken poem, I wrote this because of the differences between the teens in my school showing how different lifestyles can be similer, yet so different.
