-incident Countee Cullen’s poem “Incident” is a poem that mainly focuses on the events of racism and the effects that it has on the victims, in this particular case a young boy. It’s written in simple style and describes the terrible experience and the effects that one single action has on a young person’s mind. Using the vivid imagery, the speaker invites the reader to follow his memories with him. The poem starts with the joyful story of the young boy in Baltimore with the speaker describing his excitement and the sense of adventure for his “vacation” but in the second stanza we can clearly see the shift on line 4-8 “Now I was eight and very small, And he was no bigger, And so I smiled, but he poked out His tongue, and called me, “Nigger.”…
I chose to address this prompt in an imaginative form as I was inspired by the story of the child and man that lost their lives in the Boston Bombings. This event had a strong impact on me and my awareness that bad things do happen to good people. My imaginative piece was written as a poem by the man who died in the bombings. I wrote this poem in the first person and in current tense to convey a sense of pain and suffering in this dying process he experienced and had to go through. This poem is aimed at the horrible people who did this and they should know what they did and how it affected people. It also could help society realise how bad this event was and how because of the actions of cruel people occurrences like these do happen. Now because of these heartless souls someone else’s life will never be the same. Because of these actions someone is now missing a son, a brother, a grandson, a husband and a friend that they can never get back or see again. My purpose of this piece was to move the audience and to educate the people about the experiences of this treacherous event. I decided to discuss the process and the emotions of what the man was going through after the bomb had hit. I said ‘events flashing before my eyes’ to make that connection to the myth that when you die you see your whole…

It was a normal day for my grandma, but when she turns on the news it became very far from normal. She see’s that Mt. St Helens erupts. After that, she looks outside, but doesn’t see any ash yet. She then tells my grandpa about this. He was just outside working in his shop and is not surprised about this because of what he had heard before on the radio. He then goes outside and then finally starts to see the ash in the distance. He then gets my aunt who was only 7 at the time, and shows her the ash in the sky. They get inside quickly before the ash gets to their house.…
At the end of December 2015 we got on a plane and flew to Haiti. As we arrived we got on the Tap-Tap (taxi) and got driven to the orphanage. The drive was about an hour and a half long on roads that are not paved and had huge potholes. The only scent in the air was not what you would expect- it’s not a tropical flower smell, it’s burning garbage. While trying to talk to my family all we could hear was chaos and mass commotion. “ I’m excited but so nervous at the same time!” I screeched. All of our jaws dropped in wonder. We had all been waiting for that day since the past year when we were in Haiti.…
I remember, as a small girl, watching my mother run across the street, into a white framed house, that was bursting with flames. My mother, a very small woman, ran through a doorway of flames and pulled Mr. Miller, our elderly neighbor, to safety from his burning house. He lived alone and was trying to prepare his dinner, when some how he lost consciousness and a grease fire ignited the flames, resulting in the total destruction of his home.…

I was sitting at the computer desk in the upstairs loft, I had just finished my homework and began to check my phone, when I hear this loud thunder and lightening like sound and my house had shook like there was an earthquake. I was very confused and hadn’t realized what had happened, and as I look down all I can see is white insulation all over my desk and in my mouth. I could my brother Corey faintly yelling my name, “SARA SARA SARA?! ARE YOU OKAY?!”. I couldn’t respond I was in such a shock but I eventually responded with “Yes, I’m okay”. I stood up out of my chair and turned around to see this giant hole in the roof of my house.…
Around the little family, fire trucks and ambulances screamed to a halt. Neighbors from across the street were emerging in their pajamas with blankets for the victims. Next to the girls, the grandmother cried quietly. She had owned the property for 40 years, and all of her memories were burning in the fire. As the firefighters struggled to put out the flames, the grandmother watched her entire life go up in smoke.…
Similar to the woman in “Verses upon the burning of our house”, my house had a small fire ten years ago. In the fire I lost many prized possessions and a sense of home. In fact, my room had the most damage because the fire was right above me. My family and I felt lost, but as the time went on through the construction and renovation of my home, I was able to cope with our loss as I watched my parents in awe as they looked at this tragic event as something positive. They showed me to look on the bright side of things and never give up hope. In the poem “Verses upon the Burning of our House, July 10th 1666” Anne Bradstreet had a similar event when her house suddenly lit into flames in the middle of the night. Throughout the poem she learns to…
I was trying to wake up and trick my mind into believing that all of the buildings collapsing, people dying, gunshots firing was not real at all. Unfortunately none of the violence was ending, and at that point I knew i could not trick myself anymore. This was real. As I stand there crying my eyes out with no one familiar around me, I heard someone call my name with sirens going off at the same time. There were people crying, getting shot, dying, weeping all around me. There were dead bodies of people i had seen on the streets while walking. I stopped for a second and saw my friends walking towards me telling me to run to the bus as soon as possible. I did not want to go not knowing where my family was but that was my only choice to get home safe and to ease my mother's worries. I walked out and heard my friends in my bus screaming my name in the saddest matter and tones of voices. I could hear them holding back their tears, but at the same time i could hardly understand them because of all the tears they were shedding. When i got on the bus it was overflowing with kids and people, because the driver wanted to fit as many passengers as he possibly could transport. Many kids in the bus had no idea where their friends and siblings were, so i knew i was not alone. I finally arrived at my home and my mother was there waiting, trying to comfort me. She had been crying and…
Although I was able to help this family in a small way, it is not enough. This experience has opened my eyes to see how necessary it is to help those in need. It is far too easy for us to just sweep problems under the rug and pretend they do not exist. I now know how important it is for people…
