Five Hundred Fifty

I bought all my textbooks for class today
I had underestimated the cost
and for my efforts all I have to say
is five hundred fifty dollars was lost

Granted, I needed to buy fifteen books
So the price for each one was not TOO bad
and I'd hate to see my professors' looks
if not to buy them decided I had

I'm sure that these books will be helpful to me
In learning and later teaching alike
I just wish it did not have to cost me
As much as a fully loaded new bike

I know I'll get over it but for now
I look at my budget and wonder how
