I have slacked off on posting poems (oops) so today I bring you the adorable awesomeness of Shel Silverstein. I still know parts of "the Homework Machine" by memory, I must have had to memorize it at some point in grade school.

Yay Shel Silverstein! :) I was just thinking of him this morning, in the context of the poem I can't remember the title of where the kid lists a million ailments as reasons not to go to school and then it ends with "What's that you say? / You say today is Saturday? / In that case I'll go out to play!" Alas, there was no playing for me today.
