Hours upon hours my tired eyes wander
For I have to vast worlds mysteries to ponder

My imagination keeps me wide awake
How much longer will this dreary class take?

I have worlds to make up and people to create
With your droning voice i can't concentrate

My words and ideas are a delicate flower
You're a clumsy boot with undeserved power

I must find a way to make the time pass
And get through this boring, monotonous class
