      If  I had chance to change the world I wouldn't change anything because I think the world is doing good right now and besides what if I change something that is really important, then it well affect the world in a bad way.
For example what if  I changed the something the world needed like police or the president then the world would just fall apart and wouldn't survive.If I had a chance to change the world I would not change anything, I think the wouldn't survive with my changes that I would make, it would just make the world more corrupt.

Spa poem

Life on campus
 When in SPA Iam bored
like completing a crossword
Bella hits me in the eye
and makes me cry
This campus is violence
like a kid pulling his eyelids
My heart beats really fast
hes runnning faster than a boy on the track
This is life on campus
at least you dont have to live near a cactus
THE END

"Graph Sherbert blog post 2011

I cant relate to the "Grape Sherbert"  poem because I dont really think about what I remember eating.The phrase that help me imagine this poem is when the author mentions the things he sees, feels, and hears.Imagery helps the reader to have a visual pictutre while the reader is reading the story and it gives a mental picture in your mind as you read.

"I am offering this poem"by Jimmy Santiago Baca

When I hear people
I hear anger
I hear fear
I hear rage

When People talk all you hear is
Who do you think your talking to like that
are you sure your head is put on right
why are you acting like a fool

When people talk I hear
screaming
no sense in words
and it sounds like gibberish

"I am offering this poem"by Jimmy Santiago

The emotion that "I am Offering This Poem" by Jimmy Santiago Baca expresses is love.For example, the author mentions that he loves that person after every section.This shows that the author really loves this person.In addition he also is giving the person a poem and hes comparing it to the things that he needs to live.This shows that he loves this person because he wants this person to live.Thats why the emotion was love.

" Same song" Paragraph

Looking good is not important because when people are trying to look good they are just trying to impress someone else and I think people try to look good because they are not happy with who they are and how they look so they have to try to be somebody they are not by changing their appearance.People try to look good because they like looking good or they want to impress somebody.It depends on the person if it really worth putting a lot of effort into their physical appearance because some people look so bad that when they try to look good its not enough, they still as bad as they did without all that makeup or even worse.Sometimes it is worth because its better looking good than looking like you just got out of bed.At the end I think my appearance really matters.

"Heart! We will forget him!"

 In the poem "Heart! We will forget him!" the speaker in the poem speaks directly to her heart as if it were another person, a possible reason she talks to her heart seperately could be she dosent have anyone else to talk to or could be she still has feelings for him in her heart and shes telling the heart to forget about him.I think she got dumped by a guy, thats why she is heart broken.Personification is when you give a nonliving thing traits of a humanbeing.She is using personafication towards her heart by speaking to it as if it was a real person.There is not a way I can relate to this poem.

It was about last year and it was raining around eleven at night and I was locked out of my house.I felt intouched with nature because I actully stayed in the rain instead of going inside and avoiding the rain.I when out with my friends and I dirint come back when I was supposed to, so nobody was home.I saw my house, it was cold,dark,and everything was wet.I heard the the rain falling from the sky and hitting the house and leafs on the trees.I touched the wet and cold doorknob and the door of the house.It felt cold and lonely but at the same time it was kind of cool.It dirint realy change me but i learned a lesson out of it.

Poetry Experience Paragarph

An example of Imagery is when you are reading something and you get a mental picture in your mind when your reading the story.One sense is sight,if someone is describing something you can imagine what they are talking about.Onother sense is touche,like if somebody is discribing how something feels than maybe you can get an idea of how it feels.Onother one is hearing,if thers a noise or somebody is talking a certain way than you can determine what it sounds like.The use of Imagery helps me expresse my feelings by naking you think how you feel or see about something.
