Too Fast

They go so fast.

Too fast.

Hard to keep up.

Like the movie Unstoppable

Except it's a school year long.

And no trains.

Papers.

More papers.

Still more papers.

Never ends.

Like a car crash.

Seems forever, but isn't.

Or an earthquake.

Try to keep up.

But just too fast.

Wish it would end.

Far from it.

I miss a due date.

I fail a test.

It's just too fast.

Homework might as well be in Binary.

1001010101111010110101010111 00101001—Slow Down!

I try to compromise with the homework.

I can't.

'Cause it's homework.

A paper.

I've lost it.

Slow down!

Too fast.
