Mr. Stit has a saw in the classroom
I would just guess that he’s planning our doom
I hope we don’t die, like the movie Saw 3
But you know whatever, that is just me
Maybe you’d want to drown or get shot
But what if your killer was never caught?
And maybe you’d want to die like Joan of Arc
Or have a vampire drink your blood after dark
You could also be stung by a killer bee!
But guess what? None of those choices are right for me
You could just tire of this world and take your own life
Or trip over a rock, and fall on a knife
You could go outside, until you were blue
Or be crushed by a cow, or knocked out with a shoe
You could visit china town, and drink poisoned tea
But you know what? That still not the right death for me
Your eye could be poked out with a pointy stick
Or you could choke while sucking your BF’s dick
While in an air plane you could hit a few birds
Or you could be the test subject of a few science nerds
You could be making lunch, and burn off you knee
But I still don’t know… that’s not the right death for me…
You could fall down a deep well and hit your head
Or you could eat a deadly spider while sleeping in bed
You could fall through the ice on the Mississippi river
Or your in surgery your doctor could misplace your liver
But none of these deaths are right for me!
I think I should consider immortality…
You could be maimed by an evil potato peeler
Or wanted by a big shot drug dealer
You could walk into a big red stop sign
Or have very bad luck and walk into a mine…
You could be mauled over by an angry bear
However you die, I don’t really care
I am concerned only about my death and me
No, I don’t want a painful death, wouldn’t you agree?
I want to die in peace and tranquility
Shouldn’t life come with that guarantee?

A superb imagination you possess Bethany. This was an awesome poem about the subject alot of poeple are afraid to talk about. Very creative and funny. I really didn't find anything in this scribble that I didn't like. That's how much I enjoyed this poem. Oh and I definitely agree with the last line! Thank you so much for entering
Ocean.

Yes
You should revise this and change small errors. You'll see them when you read it again.
You didn't use poetic device, but you still demonstrated a huge amount of creativity. I loved this! This sense of humor is right up my alley.
I think you could enrich the flow by having a consistent syllable count and/or meter. Work on that.
Good luck with Laura and Cassie.
