when I'm walking alone
all I can think of is what
I might have to use as a weapon.
the pen in my purse. my keys.
the rings on my fingers. the heels on my feet. trying to remember what other women do to protect themselves from rapists and murderers.
I scan the face of every man
in case I need to identify him in a lineup.
parking garages make me nervous.
I scan the backseat of my car before I get in.
even pulling into my driveway and walking to my front door feels unsafe.
the walk takes only a minute but it's all the time he'll need to turn me into a statistic.

They're more fragile than life itself
Over and over you cast them aside,
only to find more
Now, rest in peace
Pounding impulses defile the things we wish for
and the more we forget
the more we remember again
In this beautiful, cruel world
all I can do is ask why we're still alive
Oh, with our strength--and our weakness--
What are we going to protect if there's no sense
to anything anymore?

- I like this poem a lot because it expressing things of which I feel a lot. 
- Sentimental
- "What are we going to protect if there's no sense to anything anymore?"

but your words have turned into wire with 
pins and needles ripping through my skin 
Wrapped up in your words, 
unable to breath because the feelings I once shoved down my throat have been slowly rising 
Wrapped up in your words, 
unable to seek help, because the screaming won't do anything besides get people people to tell me I am just seeking attention 
I'm wrapped up in the words that once used to caress me, but now torture me day and night. 
Wrapped up in the words I used to crave, the words I used to need. 
but have now failed to protect me , and love me. 
- I like this poem because it really resonates with me and others who might have a complicated relationship with someone. The tone of the poem would be desperation. A phrase that contributes to the tone would be the last line , ".. have now failed to protect me, and love me". ]]> 2021-04-13 16:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mullinsla/5r7iowmyqgf9u6xp/wish/1412894116 2114536 https://padlet.com/mullinsla/5r7iowmyqgf9u6xp/wish/1412894193 http://lsrelay-config-production.s3.amazonaws.com/3c1d6e0dc5b1cf3d69eb4cef3b1a4a683b7d40ef1c20d260e8e9b12fc8636de7/block_screen.html?id=dbc1e04e-841c-4dd0-989a-33149f6cb4db

-"there are no shortcuts"
-I like this poem because what he is saying is something I really believe that you put in work and you will get rewarded.
“If you do the work you get rewarded. There are no shortcuts in life."

I always wondered why I like the villains more
And I think it might be because they get on the floor
Down on their knees
For her and only her
Something in me stirs
A hero would sacrifice her to save the world, showing that they are indeed pure hearted and honest
But a villain would tear the world apart if she was hurt, that is a promise
They seem selfish, manipulative, and rude to everyone around
But he treats her like a Queen, his and only his, sitting beside him on a throne with her crown
I think villains are misjudged and that most of the time we don't get to see their story
For if we knew it, the hero may not seem so full of glory
Monsters are made, not born
And any soul tortured, confused, and abused incidentally would not have time to mourn
So the next time I defend the villain of the tale
Remember that they too, were once broken and frail

- I like this poem because sometimes we believe things that may not be true and we assume things of other people
- tone: defensive
