Homework! Oh, Homework!

The examples of the Hyperbole that the poet writer uses are "I'd rather take bath with a man-eating shark or wrestle a lion on the dark". This means that he rather do all this examples instead of doing the homework the teacher assigns him. I think that the author uses hyperbole this way is because he wants to tell people that he rather do worst things instead of doing his homework. You could tell that the one that wrote this poem hates homework.
