Princess in Waiting Review



I think this book is a very very good one, because in this book a young boy falls in love with a normal girl. Not for her beauty, or her smarts, just because he knows the real her. This book got me understanding that what matters is on the inside and not on the outside.

How to Eat a Poem - Parody

How to Rip your Homework

By Noam Landau


Don’t be quiet

Rip it up

Pick it up with your fingers and

Tear it up some more


It is dead now, when you make it.

You do not need scissors or a paper shredder

Just use your hands

For there is no test

or quiz

or exam

To study for.

This Is Just To Say- Parody

I have destroyed
your airplane
that was on your desk

And which
you were probably
saving
for school

Forgive me
it looked cool
and I was
3.

Death

The poem “Death” by John Donne is known to be a great poem for a lot of reasons. For example its unusual language use makes it a really unique. It is also great that the whole poem is actually one big metaphor.

One reason for this poem to be considered great is its unusual use of language. The language that is used in this poem is old English. It also does not have correct spelling. An example of the old English is “Death be not proud, though some have called thee”. An example of the unusual spelling is “And dost with poison, warre, and sickness dwell”. This poem is made of 3 lines only which are then turned into smaller lines.

Another reason this poem is considered great is that it is all one big metaphor. This poem is about how death cannot control natural death but can control artificial death.

Overall this poem is a great poem. For its language and metaphor.

My Childhood


My childhood is:
teddy bear

old, tall, gray
falling apart

lost in my house

Skeltonic

I saw a cat
with a bat
while wearing a hat.
The bat was sad
I was feeling bad
so i throw a knee pad pad
but it hit a lily pad.
It hit a frog
and fell into the bog.
Now I have to go
so i don't blow
the begging of the show.
