Time

Paper below me
Pen in hand.
One question left
what do I do?

Tick tock tick tock
times almost up.
I bite my lip
I start to shake.

Pens down she says,
I went on a whim.
Will it pull off
or am I wrong.

Test scores back
I did well.
Even for that answer
I couldn't tell.

Well this seems like a good poem....and obviously people here know how it is, and though this doesn't need to be repeated I'll do it anyway for kicks and giggles.



The poem is good. I Liked it. Very true!! Would you like fries with that?

Have a great day...

It's good! You've really summed up how it feels. You might want to check it over though - what's 'shack' supposed to mean?
Like it anyway - Bkwrm

I liked it a lot! I've found myself in that gruesome situation many a time! I liked the rhythm very much, and felt the pressure of time slipping away. I do wonder, though, about just a few things.

In your line, 'I start to shack' did you mean to say 'shake'? And in the line,
'Will it pull OF,' Did you mean 'pull OFF'?

In all, a very good piece. Bravo!
