Half
 
I never finish anything. I leave my work half done.
At breakfast I'm served two fried eggs. I always eat just one.

At school I'm only half awake. I don't stand half a chance.
I like to wear my shorts to school because they're like half pants.

I read no more than half a book and finish half my test.
In class I'm always teased a lot because I'm just half dressed.

This poem is supposed to have exactly fourteen lines.
