I was greeted by terrible news;
My essay for Art History was due today--
I'd forgotten my pre-Calculus homework--
And on my way down the sidewalk, a sprinkler went off
And left me sopping wet
Just as I was going to my next class--
I'm screwed.

I got home that afternoon
To find shredded furniture--
The stray cat I brought home
Destroyed everything it could get its claws on.
My parents came home that evening
After I did all I could to tidy up--
I'm screwed.

I stayed up late to finish my homework
To make sure I got it done--
I stumbled into bed at midnight
And woke up at eight o'clock--
I was an hour late for school
And I stepped in a present the cat left me--
I'm screwed.

My luck has dropped significantly--
If I even had any in the first place--
Considering how things are going so far,
I'm screwed.
So, this is a...Ballade. Yes. Trying my best, here. (Cough, cough, not really).

But sometimes you just feel like you're going to die, you are so screwed.
