Social Awareness Poem 2

The Pain

The pain will never go away
The bruises are now here to stay
The hurt you have inflicted on me
burns in me everyday
You vicious beast oh you must pay
My heart and soul won't fell the same
You yell
I quiver
You grab
I squeal
You slap
I cry
You beat
And there
on the floor
 Is where i lie
You stop and stare
But I'm deep in fear
for more will come
for me to bear
I await u next move
Just lieing there
You walk away
And all i can do i stare
My body so soreful
Throbbing in pain
And I know I will go through this another day

tTHIS PEOM IS BASED ON ABUSE OF MANY PEOPLE. CHILDERN, AND WOMEN, AGAAINST GAYS FOR HOW THEY ARE AND MANY MORE THINGS. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED OR SOMEONE SHOULD HELP THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN ABUSED TO COME OUT AND SPEAK THE TRUTH

Social Awareness Poem

For What I Have Lost
         By kayla newman
No roof above our heads,
No bed that we can rest on,
No money in our pockets,

No kitchen that i can cook in,
No food for me to cook,
No comfort, safety and warmth

We once had these things
That a family shall have
But not that's all forgotten
And way back in the past

But all we have now
Is each other and our love
For I have no pity
My sorrow will improve my strength
And maybe one day we won't be homeless again.

WELL THIS POEM IS ABOUT A SOCAIL ISSUE WE HAVE IN THIS WORLD WHICH IS HOMELESSNESS

1)Media/Newa Immersion: Newspaper articles: Animal Abuse And Neglet

              This article is about Anmial abuse and neglet. For one i dissaprrove of this, the video that was there of and example which shows neglet of these horese that live on a farm was horrifing. I was nearly in tears. The article says that these horses have been living in horribble conditions. No grass to feed on, u can find the remains of dead horses laying aroung, the dont have a proper place to stay. Which is why these people came to help this issue. They brought vets to come help and care for the horeses, the dieses and conditions they were in were basically deadly.Neglect is not giving an animal the right food, water, shelter or vet care.

The articles says that all U.S. states have animal cruelty laws, and 47 states treat some forms of abuse as felonies. Farmers and researchers can do cruel things to animals that other people can't do legally, but all states have some protection for pets like dogs and cats.

1)Media/Newa Immersion: Newspaper articles:   Joe Miller’s Confusing, Contradictory Position on Gay Marriage
      
               Well this article is based on what Alaskan GOP senate candidate Joe miller had said on the issue of agy rights.he said, quote" i think it's important that we reconize that there are different approaches to different values, and i think that it;s best for the states to be able to make thoes decisions."there was also a video that wen twith this article which u can watch down below, and i thought that what he said was a lie. Because yea hes saying all of this but yet still in Alaska they banned gay marriges.He was really into letting the states deal with this issue on thier own.Then after he said alll that later on he said that he'd vote for a contitutional amendment banning gay marriage everywhere.On the one hand, Miller says "let states decide" and on the other hand, he wants the Federal government to amend the constitution to prohibit states from deciding.Like WTF is that about. First you say its all on the people itdoesnt effect you really, now you say that your going to ban gay marriages?? He made this so confusing for most eople.He may even decide it should be up to each parish of each religeon to decide on blessings for gay marriage.Either way, Americans don't like politicans who flip flop.

1)Media/Newa Immersion: Newspaper articles: President Obama has appointed a record number of gays to his administration, data shows

        Well this article talks about How president Obama hasn't been moving fast to end the mititery's "Don't ask.Don't tell" policy. But alot of people have notice that he has appointed aloyt of openly gays officals since his election. A spokesmen from the White House says that Obama has placed about 150 gay men and women in alot of  posts in his administration..For weeks he has been criticized by the gay community for not doing alot more to help abolish the rule prohibiting gays from serving openly in the army forces.Well the gay people of NYC seem encouraged at the progress president obama had made in only his two years in office.In the article a White House spokesman Shin Inouye said Obama is proud of his appointment of officials from the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender) community. "This number will only continue to grow."
     This article impressed me alot. I like how Obama improved the gay community, and gave the Gay people of NYC more courage and faith. I will hope that this process will contuine and that gays will be ablle to particapate in the war like they ask to have more openly gays particate in the war. I would like to help make some of these suggestions come true and that we can have gay americans fell like everyone else. Wouldnt you??

   1) Media/ News Immersion: News paper article on: New York City suffers frightening 15%   jump in homicides as murder makes deadly comeback

      

       Well the article is mostly about how in the past year the cities murder rates have gone up 15%

Which is not good at all. tHE NYCD has recored about 437 murders since the passing sunday compared to the 382 murders whe had last year.NYPD recorded 437 murders as of Sunday, compared with 382 in the same period last year.The article tells us about  some places that murder rates have really shot up over the year.Areas like East Harlem and Crown Hieghts has had a big percentage of murder rate growth.
In East Harlem's 25th Precinct, murders rose 400%, with 10 slayings this year compared with two at this time last year.The article also talks  about  the differnent crimes and things that are also happening in the city.   


      Well to tell you the truth i blame the police. Maybe they arent doing their jobs good enough. We the people of NYC should be able to fell safeliving here. The police are our protectors we should be able to walk the streets of New York City without any fear or rape, being shot or mugged , harassed, and act of violence.I think we shold have a better police system where the police will act  for our safety. This is rediculas, mother are afriad to send children to scholl by them self, our senior citzen have to think twice wheen talkin a stroll down there block, and chilling at night is dangerous for us to do to. This is a serious issue that needs to be fixed immeaditly. I didnt even know that the crime/mureders in NYC where this bad and terrible i wonder how the goverment will sork to fix this issue.
