TLI (Too Little Information)

Come on now, you're an okay  teacher and all,

But I was expecting to have learned much more by the end of fall.

We know the location of the heart, organs, and veins,

But give me the chemistry, the complicated things,

I mean, I'll be using this stuff later on in college

For my BSN in nursing. So gimme some serious knowledge!

 

I don't know the physiology of muscle contractions,

Respiration, or myocardialinfarctions.

That's something I'll need in school and on the job

Instead of using my brain as a shish kabob

For sticking all the things you should have taught me

On because you're too busy taking it easy.

 

I'm not upset with you as a person because everybody loves you;

I'm just not happy that I'm not as challenged as I hoped, and ,too,

It's no fun for me, as I enjoy learning about the body.

Since you're a physical therapist, you treat this class as a hobby.

You forget that some of us want to know as much as we can

To lighten the load in college and use the extra time to get a tan.

 

I would say "Better this than nothing," because I guess it is true

That what I'm learning now is a little more compared to

What the average person knows about the structure of the shells

We call our bodies. However, this compels

Me to say that you need to step it up and change the plan.

There's nothing we students can do, so only you can.

 

By the way, you're so scattered and unorganized

That watching you get it together makes me desensitized.

Disorder in the majority of places

Doesn't really help in teaching the basis

of any subject, in case you didn't know.

So now, take what I've said and give it a go.
