Jocelyn K's poem walks through a school Monday from before dawn until the afternoon, using a repeated question: "Who wants to...?" Each stanza starts with a time of day and a complaint, then fills in the small tasks that make up a student's morning: finding something to wear, cramming for tests, squeezing through crowded halls, fighting sleepiness in lecture.
The speaker sounds tired but good-humored. Nobody here is truly miserable. The tone is chatty and relatable, with casual touches like "tummy," "pig out," and the sad-face emoticon in the title. The speaker even manages to say hey to friends along the way, which suggests school isn't all bad.
The mood is a mix of weary and playful. The ending is the funniest part. After finally getting home at two, the speaker either collapses on the couch or snacks, then reminds us that "Tomorrow's only Tuesday." The week has barely started, and that small joke sums up the whole feeling.
