Sheriff Allam

  This is the first piece of work that has come out of being in the Young Writers Group …..

.

It’s

Catastrafated

Humanated

Animated

Snow

You can catch the red eye

From the lava falling

From the red sky

Onto the ground

The sky makes you bound for

DEATH

You start howling scowling

Moaning groaning

You start hating yourself

Hating yourself

For eating that snow

I’m going to die one day anyway

You know I can’t stay

got to go away

Come back another day

DEATH

It’s blackable

Wolf eatable

Throw it up at the wall able

DEATH

DEATH

The forest is bad for you

It’s always watching you

You can’t do anything about it

Just go to the mother tree and shout it

DEATH

The Tear Drop

 

I was walking in the playground

When he came up to me and said, 'Meet me at midday or you, yes you, Are dead!'

 

I felt so scared,

So scared, I had to cry.

I hated school.

I wanted to die.

 

I have no friends.

Can't make them, you see.

I am alone.

I always will be.

 

I need some friends.

Don't want to be by myself.

I truly, deeply want some friends.

I want to be like everyone else.

Then a girl

Came up to me

And said,

'I will be your friend.

I will stand by you

In the troubles of your time.

Do not cry.

I will not let you die.'

 

She wiped away my tears,

The tears of happiness,

The first I ever had.

 

'Why me?' I asked.

'Why? I am a victim,

Not a friend to become.'

 

'Not a victim,' she replied.

'Just sad,

Sad in your eyes.

 

'Your hair is like a gift from Zeus. Your skin is soft as the air that we breathe.

But your tears

Are like molten lava falling on a Baby's head

Burning it to death.'
