Thread: Procrastination-a poem

  1. #1

    Procrastination-a poem

    Laziness ties a noose around my neck
    "I can finish it! I say "I can finish it in a sec!"
    But somehow those words don't match my actions
    as I eat a burrito and forget about chemistry reactions

    "I'll do it later" "I'll study tomorrow"
    When tomorrow comes, the plans I made-I don't even follow
    Instead I'm partying and trying to pretend
    that I don't have any homework to do on this weekend

    Curses, hatred, stress accompany my mind
    when I have only one hour to create a poster about a stupid regression line
    Eventually I finish it, finish it last minute
    Filled with regret for not doing it in the first second

    I'm a mess, I'm depressed, I should probably stop procrastinating
    But there's a season premiere today that I've been longfully waiting
    "I'll do it later" "I'll study tomorrow"
    I say as the pile of work on my desk begins to overflow

    I second this comment...

    Should probably start my hw
    "'An old friend of ours dared me to try and play God...' Mak craned his neck, the advisors and guardsmen in his wake suddenly alert at their charge's blatant discontent.

    He stood with a confidence we had never known him to possess, the bright orange trim of his ivory sleeves dangling so far from the scrawny arms folded behind his back that we thought the robe adorning his body might blow away completely in the winds that whipped around us.

    'Little did they know I was born for the role.'"

    I like it, though can't you make the last words of each paragraph rhyme like you did with actions and reactions? Use "my friend" instead of just friends and replace "second" with something else ,tomorrow rhyme it with sorrow maybe?

    first sentence is relatable, but without the lazyness

    I was going to use the word sorrow but I felt like the word seemed too deep for a poem about procrastination lol but I'll try to revise the poem with better rhyming. Thanks for the feedback

    I like it a lot
    My only criticism is that some of the stanzas feel too long
