At last the week ends
Too much work, not enough time.
Next week it repeats.


I'm further behind.
More than I was last week, but not
as much as next week.

Unfortunately, I think conjugate gives good advice.

Spring Break starts real soon--
Papers to grade before noon.
And then a week to work. Fun?

A Friday at home
In grungy clothes and bad hair
Work is better here.

I don't like grading.
My grader doesn't either.
But then, no one does.

I thought if you did it in English the syllable count didn't matter, just the effect.

So.

Friday comes again.
My article yet unfinished.
Is that beer?

No, the count matters.
Five syllables, then seven.
Who cares?!  Weekend's here.
