I'm so bored.
Actually, uninterested is a better word.

The teacher repeats
In his monotone voice.
"Boring,boring" I thought
As class continued.

"I need sleep"
"It's only a double period"
During said double periods
I think of 100 ways
To be rid of said teacher
100 ways to get into trouble
100 ways to get suspended
100 ways to escape this hell
100 ways to abolish math

But in the end
I chickened out
And settled for
Being
A delinquent math student
