Done For

A couple of poems,
a couple of books,
a couple of teachers,
a couple of nasty looks,
a couple of words said,
in a couple of ways,
a couple of incidents,
over a couple of days,
and I'm done for.

A couple of permanent markers,
a couple of rhymes,
a couple of toilet wall drawings,
a couple of small crimes,
a couple of lectures,
a couple of questions,
a couple of tell - tales,
a couple of detentions,
and I'm done for.

A couple of phone calls,
a couple members of my family,
a couple of things said,
a couple hours of them ranting at me,
a couple of fire alarms set off,
a couple of framings,
a couple of witnesses,
a couple minutes of blaming,
and I'm done for.

Any more poems,
on any more books,
any more teachers,
given any more nasty looks,
any more pranks done,
any more crimes,
any more fun,
any more rhymes,
and I'm a goner
