Suffocated

Choking

On the mountain of homework

Unable to breathe

For lack of spare thinking time

Coughing

Up the words shoved down my throat

Sputtering

And repeating verbatim educational crap

Hardly breathing

Anything more than the work given

Finally a chance to breathe

A spare moment

Of freedom and a cleansing breath

Before we're jerked back to the

Beginning

And repeat.

Choking, unable to breathe, coughing

Sputtering, hardly breathing
