the two roads meet. 
Farming, football, and PTA were
enough for some but he had
grown tired.
 
You must have a plan.
A plan for college,
A plan for the family,
You must have a plan to stay. 
 
He stayed in isolation
but was not lost in it.
He dreamt of his own world.
 
A world of creation,
A world freedom,
A world of hard work to
show what he could do. 
 
He sat planning and
applying, hoping to 
one day take in the city.
 
The lights, the music, 
The dream. 
 
Whether it was crushed
or squandered, 
Whether he found success 
or fame,
He had to go find himself.

If only it was that easy

Dream up a world
Make it real with your belief 
And then

Down the rabbit hole

But once you make that leap
It’s a hard climb back up]]> 2022-02-03 21:33:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2028426161 feedback https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041178284 I love the message of this. the feeling of needing to go out and find who you are before settling down is something I can hard relate to and you captured this feeling very well]]> 2022-02-10 20:58:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041178284 Feedback sa_in_the_usa https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041180322 I liked how relatable this poem was, the idea of all the pressure of things people say we have to do, college, family, plans, I really like that the main character strikes out on his own and finds his own path at the end 
I also really like the opening line of the gas station where two roads met]]> 2022-02-10 21:00:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041180322 Feedback waldb069 https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041180368 This is a very relatable poem I think for a lot of people--especially people from the Midwest. I feel like the formatting works well too. I especially like "Farming, football, and PTA were enough for some, but he had grown tired."]]> 2022-02-10 21:00:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041180368 he stayed in islolation but was not lost in it https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041182828 I often wish that I could feel not so
alone.
That I could sit in a room
with myself
and feel like I belong.
But I cant.

Choosing to be alone is not the same thing
as being alone

That's literally it because I can't think right now]]> 2022-02-10 21:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jgard12/3u2gz1hop324y5ig/wish/2041191372
