My school assignment was to write a persona poem and I decided "why not share it". so i hope you like it :)


My name is Katniss Everdeen

I am sixteen

I live in the Seam

In District Twelve

My father died in a coal mining accident

My mother works as an apothecary

My sister, Prim, helps her

Gale is my best friend

We hunt all day in the woods

Outside of the fence

Prim was chosen as a tribute for Panem's Hunger Games

I volunteered for her place

Peeta, the baker's son, is chosen for the boys

We will fight to the death

I don't know how I will kill him

He helped me when I was in need

We are in the arena

Fighting for our survival

We decide to create an alliance

I keep thinking

How will I kill him

I think I might love him

They announce there will be two winners this year

We are happy

We find the other tributes and kill them

The Game Makers revoke their decision

We rebel and try to commit suicide

They are mad and let us both live

Now I am in my house

Waiting out the time when the Capitol will strike

And kill everyone I love

Because I rebelled
