Syllabus

A poem

Painfully crafted Researched Detailed

Every line a message Every word a guide

Assignments Readings Some general rules

Every section a treasure Every due date so clear

And overall At the end of the day Every day

Ignored Unseen

Avoided like a germ Stepped on like a weed Oh syllabus! My syllabus!

The effort is I suppose The reward in the end
