Maggie stops at a window, and the fire is continuously raging towards us. Holding my hand she steps up to the sill. “Maggie don’t!” I cry anxiously pulling her hand. She look back at me and the sight will forever be etched in my mind. Her face is streaked with ash and dust. Tear stains clean under her eyes, but she looks so tired, so afraid, so guilty. “I can’t. This is all my fault.” Right as the flames begin to lick at the window her grasp slips from my hand and she falls to the street below

As the Aboriginal man was approaching the usual scenery, he had a look on his face that resembled the look of dullness watching as the water drops fall swiftly onto the moss-covered rocks. As he walked further into the rainforest and closer to the other side, he heard his feet crunching on the sticks and leaves. He walked with caution careful not to step anywhere unsafe.

She married Curley out of impulse, and it got her somewhere she never wanted to be. “I don’t like Curley, he ain’t a nice fella. Coulda been in the movies, an’ had nice clothes-all them nice clothes like they wear. An’ I coulda sat in them big hotels, an’ it wouldn’t a cost me a cent because I was in the pitcher.” [pg. 89].

Pompeii. Pompeii looks like a quaint little town with a lot of walking to do, but with walking comes adventure and with adventure comes fun! I noticed that in the Pompeii village where all the government buildings and markets where it reminded me of its own little town. I am sure the people of that town are very close together and help one another out when need be. I also noticed that there are many body remains, skeletal everywhere and different forms of clay art.

In April of 2010, my dad, mom, and I traveled to Orlando, Florida. We stayed there for about a little over a week and it was so much fun. On one of the Wednesdays we were there we started off the day by going to Walt Disney World. We began by going through security which nobody likes because it takes a little time out of your day, but it keeps everyone safe so it is an appreciable thing. While we were going through security we saw lots of moms and dads being annoyed by their screaming children. The

A stick snaps on the edge of the field Cole peaks out the window. There standing 15 feet from the blind stand a buck so majestic he almost doesn't seem real. The body looks like that of a mix between a moose and a deer. The antlers are bigger around than pop cans. Cole digs through the back of his mind through trail camera pictures and remembers this is the old giant. Cole grabs his shotgun and settles the sight on the

For all the times he’d tried to escape he’d always come back. This life was an Albatross around his neck and he needed to shoot it down but he never could.

The drawings occupy about fifty percent of the page, and the words appear to be organized in short stanzas sometimes diagonally opposite on the page and at other times in a block format with a bright illustration in between. The quizzical look of the caricatures gets increasingly intense as they depict the atrocities to which the book was subjected like Oscar the dog’s pee.
