An ode to a research essay!

[kharmical]

Thy essay, you have huanted my life,
burdened me with so much strife.
I have toiled for hours,
you have taken away my powers.
I have seen no light of day,
I have not slept since the eve of Thursday.
I have hated you,
and you have hated me.
But you are not done,
now go away.
And hopefully you can stand on your own,
and I will not have to rewrite you.
