I didn’t tuck my shirt,
I didn’t mess in the kitchen.
I didn’t mash teacher’s chalk
the one he always holds tenderly.
I didn’t annoy the director
by smearing muddy fingerprints
on prestine walls,
or turn the school water tank into
Thompson Falls.
There is an endless list of evil
things I didn’t do,
like sneaking out of school in full
school attire.
For sure-
Even as I write this with
A pure and innocent heart
I didn’t do my homeowrk
So I am doomed right from the start.
