"The Boy Sitting There"

Seeing the boy sitting alone...

I know what happened.

Bullying!

Tough kids acting cool

Big kids proving a point

Why?

Everything is unfair,

To this boy sitting there.

Who will help him overcome his fear?

The lunch room is a big place to be alone…

“Help!”

He silently cries with his eyes.

Poor kid

Where’s the hope?

This is unfair.

A older lookingman who was blind had trouble at a store. Some poeple snickering, other just staring.Only one store clerk and a service dog helped him get around. He got what he needed and went to get inline. The line was long and people got impacient. Other people stood there patient. I was one of those people who tried to ignoring the disrespectful people. I was right behind the man in line. The turned around when he was done and said to me, " I'm sorry for all my troubles." and walked away.

Realizing
The world I have
Compared
To a Rock
That plain old sock
Would be like winning the lottery
Yes, get a job
That's what they all say
But when you come
From where they are from
Its easier said than done
I could cry a river
knowing theres nothing I could do
Me, you
government
society
blacks
whites
we should all have
the same rights

Day two of seventh grade:
Our teacher came into the room.
The students were full of arguments,
But the teacher did nothing wrong.
The students kept at it the next day,
But the teacher did nothing wrong.
The students kept arguing back,
But the teacher had had enough.
The students were too crazy,
But the teacher was done.

It was unexpected and out of nowhere
She was this sweet, kind, little girl
No One knew how she got it
Since she was little she was so playful
One night something changed our families life forever
It's been hard for the past month or so
She has been going through chemo and everything
A few weeks ago she just got her kidney removed
She lost her hair and now we call her our little blueberry
She isn't that wild and the fun little girl how she was
She still plays but now we need to be careful
What we did do was fight as a whole not one

i woke up so early
it was way too bright
i looked up at my calender, and saw the date
December 25, Christmas morning

i sprung out of my bed
looking out the window
so much decoration, and snow
Everyone was asleep, so i waited
i couldnt wait any longer
i ran downstairs and saw the presents

I walked up to the footlocker and was browsing till a African American man walked in and had asked if a pair of lebron 15's and wondered if they were in his size, the white man working the desk said they were out of stock and then another man came up to the front desk and asked for the same pair of shoes in the same size, the white man at the desk saw the African American man leave and then he said yes and i can also get you a reasonable price on them as well...

I remember the first time,
I played on that lacrosse field,
With the pads and a jersey,
With the refs and my team,
I start the game and lose the faceoff,
But I don't give up and I steal the ball,
And run down the field getting by defenders,
And shoot as hard as I can,
The goalie tries to save the ball,
But it slips in and I realize that I scored!

Once, at the mall
walking the way
the way down the hall
to RPM raceways.

I saw a man,
racing realy well so far
until he got cut off
by some jerk in a car.

He scrambled to save
himself, driving so shady
when his breaks gave in
he hit an old lady.

The cars all stopped
the workers kicked him out
but for the jerk in the car
There was no talk about.

Everyone from our street was there
All of my neighbors playing around
It was the greatest kickball game
That I've ever played.

From oldest to youngest
We picked teams
Suddenly I was up to kick

I heard my mom from the window
She said I had to go to dance
And just like that, I left the best game.

Celebrating Michelle's birthday
Sitting at a big table,
With all my friends

A Chinese guy came to serve us,
He made us so much food!
He showed us so many tricks,
He threw food in our mouths
and made the fire fly high

After, we went to Michelle's house
On the trampoline,
Jumping around
In the hot tub,
Relaxing, chilling
One of the best days ever!

Don’t like to color,

Never will, but it gets me in trouble, still.

Back in Preschool,

Long ago,

I was a bit… slow.

We had to color, which was a curse

But it was about to get much worse.

My hands were achy, fingers numb,

The teacher just thought I was dumb.

“Why aren’t you coloring?”

“Woman, I’m trying!”

And I was placed in a play kitchen, crying.

A play kitchen? Are you insane?

DO NOT MOCK THE KITCHEN OF SHAME

I sat there still, numb with fear,

Drowning my sorrows in plastic beer.

She didn’t know, nor did I,

That I was in fact, color-blind.

I was eating some pie,

a cop came up to me and said:

"You can't eat that."

I said "Why not?"

"Because it's illegal" he replied.

"No it isn't" I said,

oh but was I ever so wrong.

"Yes it is illegal."

"No it's not!"

He arrested me anyways.

Need something else
Not need, want
No, I need it

The prices begin to add up
400, 600, 800, 1000
It's still not enough

I like this one
But that one's better
No, this one is fine
Didn't I just look at that one?

My savings are gone
But what does it matter?
I'm still not satisfied
I need another one

Excitement was brewing
Each step brought more exciting doubt
But that was part of the fun
The minute hand showed there was five more minutes
Five more minutes until the park went dark
They had time!
People walked past dizzy and joyful
They could not wait!
But a clang of a chain
Shut down his joy
A dismayed groan went through the crowd
He was the closest to the gate
He was the one who waited this long
He was the one who realized we still had time!
"5 more minutes we had..." He mumbled
"5 more..."

i have this one teacher,
she's not the best there is,
She doesn't listen to what we say,
She calls us all dumb,
She bangs on the desks,
And she yells at us kids,
But one day she left,
We thought she'd never come back,
But then there she was,
Mad we all were,
when Mrs. Came back.

Just a boy sitting there

Had no worries just didn’t care

He met a girl he really liked

They talked for hours threw the night

She had a guy, and that didn’t matter because the boy was too shy

So whenever they talked all he could say was “hi”

Then one day he heard that they had split

The boy thought “ok this is it”

The next time he saw her he started to say “maybe we could”

And before he finished she said “we should”

As I see the sunset I imagine... someone falling off the cliff.
Then I realize It's actually happening
But into a pool.
Then someone jumps off into the trees.
I never saw them again
Someone else jumped onto the sun.
Then they fell because there legs burnt off.
It was my turn.
I stole a jeep then I drove up the hill and I changed out the tires to be pedals when i pressed a button
So I drove down the hill.
100! 200! mph.
Then i hit the water and pressed the button and i was a boat.
