Ballad Poem

Slavery:

Slavery was well defined,
you would have to be blind,
to not see the signs,
of a terrible line of life,

you work hard or you die,
picking cotton all day and night,
swearing under their breath,
 something that excistes only in their dreams,

the day is hot,
 the night is cold,
oh when will it end?
waiting is not enough,
to keep on living,

time goes on with living hopes,
for whom will end it foever,
but who?
who would end this torment?,

finally the day that,
the night is brighter,
the day is darker,
has come and,
so has the end of our living nightmare.

Narrative Poem

all a girl wanted was to,
leave-leave-leave her home,
she finally got her wish,
but had to fight a fear knot inside.

out of all the kids there she stood out,
she was as bright as the sky,
the others as dark as night itself,
she was like a star in the night sky.

she had to fight a nervouse knot,
on the way there,
she couldn't help but tighten the knot even more.

once upon a time there was a girl,
that girl got lost in camp,
inside shhe was screaming to help,
outside she was in the verge of tears.

once upon a time in a cabin,
a girl was choosing where to sleep,
she had a sleeping bag in hand,
and trying not to freak out in mind.

the girl had touched water the next morning,
then let the sun dry her off,
the heat was too hot,
she wasn't feeling to hot herself.

inside a cabin,
was like being in a cage,
all that was conforting was,
the night sky.

last day for freedom,
at night their lit a camfire,
to bad she was trapped,
all she wanted was to be free but it didn't happen.

THE END!

Anne Frank- Stage Adaption

The play starts (1945)when Mr. Frank goes to Meip's house to say good-bye because that place reminded him of his family, too much. He finds Anne's diary and starts to read it. He has flashbacks to when the Van Daans and his family hid in a basement. (1942) The Van Daans and Franks couldn't move around, in the daytime because the green police were around working 'till six pm. When the Franks had left they made it appear as if it was abanded and left a note that they have left Germany. The jews had to wear the star of David which made it easier for Nazis to identify them. They had to wrip off their star of David and burn them. Peter Van Daan was agianst wearing the star of David as long as Hitler was around. Anne Frank felt kind of akward since she never minded wearing it. Mr. Frank gave Anne a diary for her thirteenth birthday. Later, on Mr. Dussel, a jewish dentist goes to live with the Franks and Van Daans. Two years later (1944), they have food problems and find out Mr. Van Daan has been stealing food for two years, with the excuse of being hungry. In which all of them were by that point. The green police finds them because of a theif that stole a radio and told them where they were hidden. They were all taken to consintration camps. Anne and Margot both died of typhus. The Van Daans and Ms. Frank die in a consintration camp a well. Mr. Frank was the only surviver.
