Poems about life

Collection of random poems I think of from time to time. Thought it might be better to collect them into one, rather than having lots of separate files. No particular theme, and the poems may or may not be completed.

It's a poem. About the social injustice still occurring in America effecting African American people as a community.

These are poems I have written about everything happening around me and in the world.

What would you do if a school shooter entered your building and threatened your students? That's what Heidi has only a few seconds to decide when she hears the LOCKDOWN! announcement repeated three times and shots ringing out in the halls. Part 2 of the Scorned Woman series tells the story of a frustrated teacher before, during, and after tragedy, and how it will change the future of middle schools across America forever.

It's all there but nobody will look.

A poem about the injustice of choosing profits over people to the tune of 1.6 million deaths per year. Tuberculosis is curable - yet it is allowed to kill so many because of price-gouging companies like Cepheid (owned by Danaher) which charge exorbitant prices for tuberculosis testing equipment to the people who can least afford to pay. Going undiagnosed prevents access to treatment. *The following information is outdated as this campaign started in 2023 and has had a good amount of success, but I am leaving it up to maintain the context of my poem. Test cartridges sell for $10-15 but only cost $3-4 to make, and hundreds of millions of development dollars were public money!! This is an unconscionable decision by a private company to deprive people of healthcare across the world. You can help by emailing Danaher at sustainability@danaher.com , tagging them at @CepheidNews and @DanaherCorp , and calling them at 202-828-0850 or 888.838.3222 . Join us - every voice matters.

FIND OUT HERE! --- This is my first comic -- so the art work might be a bit on the "IT NEEDS HELp! -- pairs respectively with a white background (so before u read this please change/keep you're background to the white color)... it just pairs up with the artwork, and overall makes the comic look more put together!

Life in a Pandemic is a descriptive short story based on current events all over the world

what is covid 19? This poem goes over just a few of the horrors that the corona virus brings.

This is the spot where I will throw up the stuff that I can't find a place to shove. It could be a response to current events or something I want to get off my chest or some creative writing I had no place to ptu. Thank you for viewing my fantastic display of trash!

I wrote this for a school assignment years ago but I wanted to publish it. This is not a true story, I do not mean to offend anyone with what I've written. It is just a story. Copyright ©️crashxqueen

35 years ago a clan of mythical creatures shocked the world of Manhattan by revealing their existence. Then 30 years ago they all disappeared and nobody seems to remember their existence. What happened to Manhattan's midnight vigilantes knows as The Gargoyles? The year is 2025. At the Youths for a Brighter Tomorrow convention in San Francisco, California, [a scientific conclave where the brightest minds from High schools around the world have been invited to come together and discuss global threats with today's top leaders], five high schoolers have each been given small mysterious giftboxes. There are no instructions or letters attached to the boxes, only a small salutation, "From, A.X.". Inside each box is a stone ring with a single gem laid inside. Three try on the rings and are immediately plagued by nightmares, but cannot take the rings off. One pawns the ring for money, so that he can pay to keep up his lie. One finds a secret so terrible, it causes her to lock the ring away for good.

The World changes. Society changes. A Person changes. But what is worse?

Sometimes you have to let go to get a better grip on life. My thoughts on why this year is more peaceful for me and maybe could be for you too.

Do they?
