1st Period Found Poems by Amanda Godby https://padlet.com/godbyam/1stperiodJem Jem's reaction to the trial en-us 2016-11-29 12:01:46 UTC 2025-09-28 01:55:43 UTC hello@padlet.com Jem's Angry https://padlet.com/godbyam/1stperiodJem/wish/140466992 Freedom? Sympathy? 
I thought he was free
But turned out he wasn't.
With an angry tone I yelled,
"It ain't right."  
So innocent this man is
How cruel these people show themselves to be.

to find out Tom wasn't guilty,
But then i was disappointed and felt separate stabs between each guilty they called. 
I felt like Atticus used strong evidence to support his defendant,
But society ruled overall.

but they found him guilty
for their biased reasons,
although things didn't go my way,
life isn't fair,
for the announcement that Tom Robinson was voted guilty,
felt like a stab.]]> 2016-11-29 12:45:40 UTC https://padlet.com/godbyam/1stperiodJem/wish/140467385 The poem https://padlet.com/godbyam/1stperiodJem/wish/140467422 I learned that i need to be strong by watching my dad in court. 
But I can't hide that I'm angry  about Tom Robinson being guilty. 
My dad gets called names like "nigger-lovin bastard". 
He doesn't care when people say stuff like that and that's why i want to be strong like him.

and they did too, 
but they chose wrong.
The verdict guilty was called out upon the awaiting crowd. 
I, red in the face, with bitter tears streaked down my face.
 I thought it wasn't fair.
 I knew it wasn't fair.
He wasn't guilty but because of his skin his future was changed. 
Just like that, 
It was over.]]> 2016-11-29 12:46:43 UTC https://padlet.com/godbyam/1stperiodJem/wish/140467714 The verdict https://padlet.com/godbyam/1stperiodJem/wish/140468175 He wasnt guilty and jem knew it,
It was the wrong verdict.
Atticus mounts for defense,
by stating a lot of evidence.
He was judged by the color,
the color of his skin.
for voting so racial,
that should be a sin.
Tom robinson was guilty,
and that was the verdict.
