This is a poem that i had to write for english, enjoy.

Puppets
All are puppets tied to a tree.
Everyday we cry out, "We want to be free."
He says he has the key,
But there is a fee.
While laughing says he,
"You must bend your knee to me."

When I wrote this many kids, including the teacher, thought that I was protesting slavery. I was in fact, not. I was just writing without really thinking about what it was that I was writing. I think it's crap, but my teacher and some of my classmates said it was good. My friend Logan even laughed and thought it was much better than most of the stuff people say is good.
