Study in C# Minor

In books of study I asphyxiate,
With no ambition of high achievement.
This to people I willingly relate,
For I surely need drastic improvement.

Learning of the brain makes me quite hungry,
Yet I realise I must not leave my post.
Endocrine organs just make me angry,
Yet of my knowledge I do wish to boast.

Sitting in my chair on this blist'ring day,
I can't seem to focus, much less imbibe.
In due time, for my squand'rance I shall pay.
Too bad the faculty is closed to bribe.

Ah, the pangs of being chained to my desk,
I might as well attempt the arabesque!
