This poem was inspired by the outsiders

Switch

Gingerly we walk, 

This area is dangerous

We just don’t know this

Men, staggering, swaying and unsteady

Scared, I’m scared

Gotta get out

I’m jumping through the streets like a spring! All the other cats in the window look at me as a god. I slink around the fish stand like a mouse and jump up and take a fish. Yum! So good. Suddenly I’m in a jungle!

 The Strongman

It’s been a struggle
Turning on the tap
50-gallon barrels of water cost a lot
The price is going up next month
Water gushed into the barrel
We know the problem is much bigger
Contamination
Windmill water isn’t safe anyway

“My coach told me I ran like a girl I told him if he ran a little faster he could too.” -Mia Hamm

Why am I never allowed to be who I want to be?
Why are you killing me with your cruel words?
