Stronger by Kelly Clarkson

Meaning of the poem: Everyone can grow from their mistakes but that doesn’t mean you have to be dragged down from it, instead it will only make you build strength and make you stronger.

Theme: One may try to drag us down but one shouldn’t let that effect them instead one should build strength from their mistakes.

 

 

“Tell Tale Heart” alternate ending in limited omniscient point of view

the point of view I used was limited omniscient

 

The police officer knocked on the door with suspicion. When someone answered the door the police officer was told by the man living in the house that the noise he heard was from himself from a nightmare. The police officer and his fellow officers entered the house searching around for anything suspicious, when the police officer didn’t find anything then took a seat in the old man who was on vacations room. And chatted with his fellow police officers and the man offered us a drink, we suddenly noticed the man who welcomed us in was turning red and was sweaty as if something was screaming at him and making him nervous, he screamed and interrupted our chatter, by saying and showing us that there was a dissembled body beneath the floorboards, and it was the old man whose room we were in.

 

 

First They Came For….

adapted from the poem by Martin Niemmoler “first they came for the jews” in response to the poem “danger of silence”

First they came for the African Americans , and I did not speak out—
Because I was not an African American.

Then they came for the refugees, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a refugee.

Then they came for the feminists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a feminist.

Then they came for me—                                                                                                                      and there was no one left to speak for me.

Where does one find beauty in the face of extreme conflict?

Where does one find beauty in the face of extreme conflict?

I think that you can find beauty in extreme conflict through helping others in a time of need and that the beauty is not a physical appearance of a human or the earth but on how others can help each other and come forgiving and of help at the end of an extreme conflict. You can see beauty through ones standing up against a greater power or fighting for what they think is right. Beauty is never lost.

A source that has answered this is hunger games.
