Poetry

>18 years americans cannot write in cursive
Poor infantilized nation

English 7? What the fuck is that?

It's obvious the poem was written by a 12 year old in the seventh grade.

Probably 7th grade english

or a 17 year old in 7th grade

I'm kinda replying to everyone in general here. Yes I turned this in and yes I will probably get either a B or a C on this. That is sad but I'm not good at English and I really hate poetry. I wont get any bad criticism because this is normie English so it doesn't matter. Obviously public education is flawed and you don't have to try. How would you feel if I told you I am a senior in high school next year going to k-state on a scholarship for engineering. BTW I have an A in english

>BTW I have an A in english

Damn.....you showed us. Shut me right the hell up.

Is this a joke?

Sadly no

Well...in a way

I would laugh at you. K state is a shit school.

You said you would have no metaphors yet you say the poem is garbage. Fail/10

That was intentional and if you say K-state is a shit school I don't really care I expected someone to say something like that anyways. Why is it a shit school btw what experience do you have there... none?

What experience does anybody have there? None.

You sound like an anti-intellectual ass with a serious Dunning-Kruger effect.

My opinion is that you should stop dicking around and write a real poem. Jesus, writing bad poetry is one of the few things teenagers can actually do reliably. If you can't, write a mechanical poem or two and make your teacher earn his pay. Look, here's some I did for school. For bonus points, don't tell them they were generated randomly and watch people try to analyze them.
