I'm Not Marking This Mess
By
Mark Chivers (12)
I can see his face ready to blow
he shouts so the whole class will know
'Sir, Sir I'm stuck, I need more time.'
'I told you what to do, don't step out of line'.
I find it hard and embarrassing with him yelling
about my reading writing and spelling.
'Hurry up, get on with it, I'm not marking this mess'
I say, 'I need more time, I'm doing my best'.
He tells me little kids can do better than me
'I've seen better from my daughter, she's only three
where's your full stops and capital letters?
now go and sit down until you do better.'
It's hard to do my work I find
I never rest, it's always on my mind
then I get frustrated, rude and angry
because he doesn't understand me.
