A/N: Hola mi amigos! Well, I know in the first chapter (I think) it says this will only be one, but I felt something from my inner-writer calling me out to continue these. They're basically just a bunch of free-verse poems about times during the Hunger Games Trilogy, from anyone's POV. This one is Peeta's POV when Katniss gets picked.

"I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute"

Nonononono.

This is n*o*t* happening to

ME.

B#A#D thing only happen in

Fairytales.

Only happen to

!H!E!R!O!I!C!

People;

H*e*r*o*e*s who battle

firebreathingdragons.

not to people like

Me.

So I stand there,

(frozen)

With my heart

Into a million and one pieces.

And I am unable to find them all

I almost do,

But then I another name enters my ears

UNWELCOMED.

I k^n^o^w this name.

The name is mine.

So I {watch myself}

Walk up the staircase of

To my arranged death.

P-E-O-P-L-E-

Might tell you I had a

C.h.a.n.c.e.

But that chance left me the moment

Her

Name was called.

That

b"e"a"u"t"I"f"u"l

soul who stands so

completlybrokenlikeglass

in front of me,

That girl's spirit will be my assassin

I already know it

Even if she doesn't.

I couldn't feel my heart b=e=a=t=i=n=g

Anymore.

The rhythmic "thumps" were replaced with a

Hurricane of

T?R?A?S?H?I?N?G?

in my chest.

One look into those

Strongstrongstrong

grayirises

And I knew.

I knew how completely

Hopeless

Everything was from then on.

How pathetic

We would be,

Letting the

CAPTIAL

Run us around like mice in a maze

We were

forever trapped

In this prison cell we call

Life,

And there was
