Ok.
You got this.
I never said it was going to be easy;
I said it was going to be worth it.
Senior-Itis
Mr. Itis has the best attendance
in all my senior classes.
He wants to get
his cap and gown
today.
Craves it.
Needs it.
Not so fast, friend.
Those late assignments
you shoved in my email
after midnight
haven't been opened,
let alone graded.
That black robe
and mortarboard
are the lone
carrot I still have
that you want.
You'll get what
you want
(probably),
but
you
have
to
work
a
few
more
days.
And if you think I'm being
too mean
too cynical
too much
I can live with that.
