Gmynastics: Beam

   Inhale a deep gulp of air like a vacuum, hop up onto the long plank towering of the ground
  You try to stay balanced, your legs tremble underneath you, you make your first leap, gliding in the air like a swallow, feeling as light as a feather. You come down onto that long intimidating plank.
make a wrong move and you tumble off, your face turns as red as a cherry tomato,
embarrassment falls over you, hundreds of eyes watching you like hawks,
quickly you get back on even though you feel like quitting, you are on that long plank again, ready for your next move: a cartwheel your hands touch the the plank and you launch your legs over you, your legs cut through the air like scissors , you feel glorious,victorious, as you make your landing,
pride is gleaming and glistening like diamonds, you grin and your eyes shine, but you have to dismount, take a long stride, put your hands on the beam launch all of your body over you, flip over and you land your front handspring.Throw your hands up and smile.

Slavery Days

               A little boy watched his mom beg for her kids
                                     and then get kicked and beat

                   Slaves tired to escape then got caught and brutally beaten,
                                             sometimes killed.

           Uncle Toms were torn away from their real friends
                                  to go with their enemies
                 
                                A slave pretended to be blind
                                     was set free, ran away to become a successful farmer
                          
            25 whip lashes was only a small amount
                       they were used to much more
                                    
                                  people acutally sold other people
                                         like animals 
                                                
                    Slaves were torn away from thier family
                                                    never saw them again

..................POEM

…………….POEM

Long, tall, stretched out neck

Tall as a skyscraper

Dark, muddy, splotches covering a murky yellow body glistening in the sun like a dirty yellow shirt

Tearing apart its food with its razor sharp teeth, shredding it to pieces  

Its legs as long as a towering tree

Its horns like a club

Its ears soft as silk 

Its tongue as long as Yao Ming

Its hooves as powerful as a panda

This is a beast that you surely would not want to mess with

Every step it takes it’s like the earthquake in Japan

Its mouths foams starving for food

You can not tame this firousis animal
