Here is a humorous poem from my poetry book, OTRONAUT!
High School Sucks!

I was so disappointed with the Key Club
When they told me they don’t club people with giant keys
I told the music teacher I can play the didgeridoo for her
She told me didgeridon’t
So I picked up a violin
And she said to put it Bach
I wanted to join the A/V club
Until they said A/V doesn’t stand for Awesome Vampires
The Home Ec teacher kicked me out
When my homemade ginger ale turned into ginger fail
My guidance counselor said I need Algebra
I don’t think I need a bra made from algae
We had to read Hamlet in English class
Spoiler alert, it is not a cookbook for ham cutlets
They kicked me out of the Fencing club
For trying to sell them the principal’s stolen watch
They kicked me out of Mock Trial
For mocking the judicial system
They refused to audition me for Godspell
After I said I don’t need an audition, God is spelled G-O-D
My home room teacher sent me to the principal’s office
When I asked, if this is high school how come we’re not getting high?
I hope none of this messes with my GPA
GPA still stands for Great Personal Awesomeness, right?
