For the essay dealing with race, I suggest reading “Black Like Me”. The novel is a short yet compelling examination of cultural differences. In the novel, a white man disguises himself as a black man...
Here is one I wrote.
To watch you sleep
I love the way the moon light revels upon your face,
The way I feel when we embrace.
As I watch you sleep, I run my fingers through your hair,...

This is a nice poem. It seems to say many insightful observations about fear and other trivialities. Poetry is an amazing healing tool. Poetry always helps me when things aren’t going as I would...

“It was fifteen minutes before I could work myself up to go and humble myself to a nigger—but I done it, and I warn’t ever sorry for it afterwards,...
This poem is very nice. I really like the form.
1984 is one of my favorite books. Yes, some parts of the novel are not particularly eventful, but I feel they are placed with good reason. The dull points seem to reflect the quotidian lives led by...
You shouldn’t give up. If you have an idea, stand up for it. Just know the facts.
I recommend that you talk to your teacher. You should ask him to conduct a classroom debate with a formal order. If...

The dense air swirls around.
The music plays with a canorous sound.

I read the novel on this website, and really enjoyed it.There is a link to the novel under authors, and Alexandre Dumas.
Punishment aborted.
My world view now distorted.
I sit and dream of things to come.
