Midterms in the Rough

For those of you out there with a lot on your mind, take a three minute break and partake in the joys of my poetry.  This one goes out to all the students in the middle of midterms season.p"Where do I go from here?Alas, I am stuck in the land of fear.Wondering as I wait, one minute closer draws nearpHow do I study for this next testAnd allow myself to rise above the restWhere do I lay my pencil to read the bestpOh, how I am disenlightened right nowOh, the warm embrace of my bed and howNo, I must not give in or soon I might lose my vowpThough, sleeping in does sound greatIf I soon awake so late, then maybe I will be irateWhat then if I walk in, matepShould I sit with the best?Write with the worst?or else, perhaps I should let the test triumph over mepNo, I do not think this wayas only I can obeyMy will and that of my great fatherthat of which I do to him praypTo believe in something better when I'm lostand still, to not falter when I'm tossedTo be still living does not exhaustas soon I will triumph over and be the bosspSo, midterms midterms come my wayand I will show you the power of who I am todayBut only shall I be backed as long as my great father keeps me on track!"[C.A.S.H 10/10/11]
