My Excuses
I started on my homewor
but my pen ran out of ink.
My hamster ate my homework.
My computer's on the blink.
I accidentally dropped itin the soup my mom was cooking.
My brother flushed it down the toiletwhen I wasn't looking.
My mother ran my homeworkthrough the washer and the dryer.
An airplane crashed into our house.
My homework caught on fire.
Tornadoes blew my notes away.
Volcanoes struck our town.
My homework was taken
by an evil killer clown.
Some aliens abducted me.
I had a shark attack.
A pirate swiped my homework
and refused to give it back.
It took so long to make these upI realized, with dread,
it would have just been easier
to do the work instead.
