English 10 B unit 3 Night poemMay 13, 2009ashley bokma
The looking glass
Looking through the looking glass
There was once a happy lad who
Had a loving mother, father and sister
There was happiness in every corner of his life.
Until a terrible evil came into his happy world
Now looking through the looking glass
He saw his mother and sister taken.
His father and he alone
He sees how awful mankind can be
Beating, torture, greed and murder
All in the name of genocide
For the master plan of a mad man
Now after the madness has ended
He sees himself in the looking glass
He no longer sees the happy boy he had been
Instead a skeleton of himself, just skin and bones and
Big black hollow eyes,
A ghost to haunt him the rest of his life.
