Assignment that made me think....

In AP english we're studying Macbeth and theres a witches brew scene in there where the rythym of the play changes. We were assigned to write at least 10 lines in that same pattern about what was wrong with our world today and then put them into our own "hells broth pot" Now overlook the witches and hell references this assignment really got me thinking about all things wrong with out world today. Here's what I came up with:

VH1 and MTV

Constantly we hear and see

Sex we use to fill a void

Shame and guilt and lives destroyed

Earthquakes shake and fear inspire

Things on Earth have grown quite dire

Hearts are swayed and feet do stray

Lies leave hearts in disarray

Words that hurt and wrists that bleed

Life goes on we pay no heed

For our dear worlds hope to grow

To the pot this all must go

So what things do you see in our world that need to change? Ghandi once said "you must be the change you wish to see in the world" and i agree 100%. If you dont like it, do something to change it. Agree about the MTV? Theres a petition at battlecry.com. Donate to the earthquake victims, Don't judge those who make mistakes, show love to those around you. Be Christ to those that surround you because for some of them the only Christ they'll ever see is the evidence of him in your life. Keep livin in out :)
