The Hunger Games

Suspense/Horror

People Know Not

People die and are born.

People hate and people love.

Everyone loves a good suspense

Hanging on to the edge of your

Seat lost in the movie or show

People are sick at heart

Some people are good at heart

Others have no heart

Others have no love,

No happiness,

No . . . anything

A game is a game

Only to children

Who know of

Nothing else.

This is not a

Game for me.

This was not fun,

Or thrilling for me.

This was life or death.

People know not of

What children in

The arena suffer.

People know not of

Our homes, dreams,

Or of our thoughts

And feelings.

They do not know us

To them, we are merely

A chess piece

In the games. We are not

People. We are

Their hopes for a

Better life.
