​Since you Asked I'll tell you why Because I was so scared of the snake Because I literally jumped over the snake Because I thought it was chasing me Because I was chasing my sister my sister before I jumped over the snake Because my sister was aggraveting me Because I found out that I was looking for my sister at the pond Because I saw the snake come towards me Because the snake looked poisoness Because I thought it poked me like a bee would stung you Because I thought I got poisoned Because I was screaming to mom about it Because I was relieved Because my mom said I wasn't like a money was safe in a safe

Theme message Sometimes we want to get, Away from the place don't like. The place would be like its always Raining and there's No sunny days. The kids would seem mean For no reason As a fresh strawberry That had been Just stepped on. You would think the place Might better But it won't. So you start Disliking the Place more. We would Want to go back But we can't. But we soon learn That there


Are things that are Similar things From the place we love. It's like the Stepped on strawberry Had magically Came back fresh And for a new start. We start to realize That are Other people Much nicer. We learn to like the Place as we notice That are there. We soon realize that We have to go With the Flow even if things Don't go the Way you wanted.

Cake has no health really unless you put healthy toppings on it. I would go with the healthier choice. Pie! Would you choose the meaner or nicer friend? I would choose nicer! It's not about whether they are popular, if they aren't nice, they aren't your friend.

Theme Poem Like an iceberg there is always more underneath, whether it be your dirty clothes pile or under your rug, there's always more. It may be hard to find, to see...it may seem dark like when you walk outside when the streetlamps aren't on. You might lose your way at first but you'll find the right path that will lead you to the truth. It's a long journey, it might take you to places you didn't even know existed. Just take a closer look. Stop and think...​"What's underneath?"

I heard the ​POP ​of a gunshot and woke up to meet the round, worried eyes of my mother.

Jack L poems


Theme Poem In life it dosen't matter what you look like, it's what's on the inside that matters. When You look at someone That might not be exactly Who they are.

Since you asked I'll tell you why. Because the boy you called fat is starving himself. Because the boy you called stupid and smacked comited suicide. Because the old man you made fun of for his scars he served our country. Because the girl you called ugly is begging her parents the plastic surgery. Because you hurt peoples feelings they feel insecure. Because you say mean things people hate themselves. Because you bully. Because you use your strength as intimidation. Because you verbally abuse. Because you are a killer. More people commit suicide than drug overdoses. Because you're sick. Because you disgust me. Because every time I hear it on the news it saddens me. Because sometimes I'd give them my life just so they can have a second chance. Because I hope they wouldn't do it again. Because you think about the outside not the inside. Because you turn people crazy. Because 1/2 the school shootings are from people who were bullied. Because it's a sensitive subject. Because the things you do are worse than a bee sting. Because it hurts for life, not a pinch because you ruined there life. Because you say you have it worse. Because you still think it's funny that they're riding in a hearse. Because you bully.


Because you cause the world stress. Because I hope you listen. Because you cause me stress. Because I said stop. Because if you don't our children won't be here.

You make them fell so badly They don't deserve it what so ever Would you like it if someone pointed out every little flaw? No, you wouldn't. If you do that, people might do it back.

When you are worried stay calm or else you might jump to conclusions Sometimes if you're scared or worried it feels like there's nothing you Can do at all. It feels like there's nothing you can do at all It feels like I am a little girl on monkey bars but all the sudden I am stuck I can't move I'm scared so I start getting sweaty and losing my grip But a afraid of falling so I just hang. It seems like I can't put my Hand onto the next one. I'm stuck like gum on a sidewalk But if I let go get off and try again take a deep breath. The monkey bars are Easier my hands aren't sweaty or blistered. I don't feel scared so I can climbing And climbing all the way to the end. I know there is nothing to be scared of if you're stuck get Off and try again.

By Brandon Haack The screams of the civilians Fade over The screams of others Like a hurricane of Screams. The people run It's like an endless race Some fall and some some stop. The suited men Run after the race Yelling in undistinguishable Words. Their boots make a sound As if they were a Machine. BOOM! A massive cannon has Gone off. It's like the sound of a million drums. BOOM! A house crumbles under The power of The million Drums.


A hot summer day There is a machine That controls Some. I decide to deify the machine And I grab my Bike. I ready up The chains to Pull the wheel. Ready. Got my hands on the bars Set. Preparing my self Go! I moved my legs like I Was running From a monster. The chain pulls The wheel round, And round. I must go faster to beat the machine! ... I didn't beat the machine
