My parents love me and provide me with all the things my heart desires‚ so creating a connection with the child in the poem‚ “My Papa’s Waltz‚” seemed as an impossible task. Yet‚ I have made a startling discovery with the child in the poem‚ and that is the way he and I both downplay the horrors in our lives. The boy in this poem is receiving scars from his father whose senses are muddled up to the point that he isn’t even in this world‚ though

ENL102 31 October 2013 Bobby “KA-BOOM!” It was like the echoing of the fireworks on the fourth of July‚ except it was not. These were bombs; real bombs.

We heard the bombs detonate day after day. They seemed to

And since society and its rules and cultures are made by people‚ the world itself can never change‚ at least not fast enough to become a noticeable change. But then again‚ what doesn’t change in this world? Can there be change and at the same time can things remain the same? There can be no life without change‚ no life without the constant adjustments

This I believe. A fighter‚ That’s what some people call me. Family‚ friends‚ people I don’t even really know. They call me a fighter because I fight in my head‚ against something that can be way more powerful than me. If I win a fight‚ they call me a fighter because I overcame it‚ I faced it and won. If I loose‚ They call me a fighter because I get back on my feet and face it again. There is an infinite amount of rounds. I am almost always fighting. Fighting for my freedom‚ my happiness‚ fighting

The night sky was clouded with a tired haze‚ sending the city into an emotional collapse of anything exciting. Even the typically wild taxi services buzzed with boredom‚ and the street lights sent any bystanders into a mental slumber. With bland weather‚ came bland people‚ who had many things to accomplish while the rest of the city folk were caught in the whirlwind of disinterest.
