Homework is something that every student has to deal with, and it can often be a daunting task.

The
poem \"Homework\" by Russell Hoban perfectly captures the struggles and frustrations of
completing assignments. With its simple yet powerful words, it reflects the universal experience of
students who are overwhelmed by the never-ending pile of homework.

The poem begins with the line \"Homework, oh homework, you're giving me the blues,\" immediately
setting the tone for the rest of the piece. The speaker is clearly feeling overwhelmed and frustrated by
the amount of work they have to do. The use of the word \"blues\" also adds a touch of melancholy,
highlighting the emotional toll that homework can take on students.

The next few lines describe the seemingly endless list of tasks that the speaker has to complete, from
reading to writing to studying. This is a relatable experience for many students who often have
multiple assignments from different subjects to complete in a short amount of time. The use of
repetition in these lines emphasizes the overwhelming nature of homework.

The poem then takes a more humorous turn as the speaker declares \"I'd rather take baths with a man-
eating shark, or wrestle a lion alone in the dark.\" These exaggerated scenarios serve to highlight the
extreme lengths that students would go to avoid doing homework. It also showcases the creativity
and imagination that can be sparked by the dread of completing assignments.

The final lines of the poem bring a sense of resignation as the speaker realizes that they have no
choice but to complete their homework. They declare \"I guess that the teacher will just have to wait,
my homework is due in the morning, I'm afraid.\" This ending captures the feeling of being trapped
and having no control over one's own time and schedule.
