Minus
The air conditioning shuts off in the cafeteria
after two p.m. and the school internet goes out
in third, fourth, and second period
In eight days school will be out
(Minus the weekends)
We turn our computers in on the twenty-third
and I won't be able to message my friends
But it won't matter if we haven't spoken a word
next school year, we'll pick it back up right where we end
(Minus the seniors)
I get one week of break at the beginning of summer
before Marching Band, Baseball, Cross Country, and everything starts
my friends say it sounds like a bummer
But I like my schedule to be filled with so many parts
(Minus Doctor's Appointments)
Minus two months no communication
Minus any friends I won't see on vacation
Minus homework and final exams
Minus group project presentation plans
End of the school year, start of the summer
End of smart decisions, start of the dumber
