rough draftttt

Three friends sitting around a table, set for a summer picnic dinner, they chat and reminisce, talking of times they have had and thinking about the future experiences still awaiting them. They look around to see a plump turkey, waiting to be cut slice by slice and passed around to each of the three hungry families. Alongside the turkey, there is a pot of mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, ham, stuffing, bread rolls, almost every trimming you can think of.


After some time through the dinner one of the boys, mason has brought up a very fond memory of the three boys, the time they took a trip to Wisconsin together for a week, to go to the dells and have a little vacation to themselves before the football season officially kicked off again, even though they had been practicing for months now.



Mason said to both Eduardo and Dontrell,

"Do you remember playing water basketball at the first hotel we stayed at?"

"yeah" replied Dontrell,

"When buddy was hitting every shot on you?"

The three all laughed as teasing each other was a big part of their friendship, but they all knew it was just for fun.


The trio continued deep into the dinner talking about the Wisconsin trip, as well as many of the experiences from football in the past years. The next season that will start legal practice soon, would be Mason, Eduardo, and Dontrell's junior season, and it was expected to be good season for their school, the Malcolm X Whales.



All three had been working hard for the last three years now to get the positions they held today. In fact, the school football team was how they met and gotten close with each other so you could really attribute their friendship to the game they love.



Mason, Eduardo, and Dontrell, then went downstairs, to just relax and play a couple of their favorite video games. They wouldn’t usually be all that competitive, although there would be trash talk throughout every game that was put into the game system. (Usually started by Dontrell)



The three made their way up to the bed two stories above them, in Mason's room. Once there, they start getting ready for bed and Dontrell says

"I call the left side."

"Fine, then I've got the right side!" says Mason.

''So I'm just in the middle then. Huh" Eduardo says reluctantly.

But the spots were already called out and there was no debating it.



The lights went off and before too long, the three drifted asleep, ready to start a new day, ready to make more memories.

song evaluation...

Your subtleties, they strangle me
I can't explain myself at all
And all the wants and all the needs
All I don't want to need at all.



This stanza, I believe is expressing a discontent within a relationship. In this case the male of the relationship is unhappy; this is shown in the first line, saying that he doesn't like the little things about the girl.



The walls start breathing, my mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone
A weight is lifted on this evening
I give the final blow.



This second stanza is saying that after some thought, the guy decides he needs his space, and by her leaving him alone, he feels much better. I believe that the final line "I give the final blow means that he broke up with her officially.



Light

It ends tonight, it ends tonight



A falling star, at least I fall alone
I can't explain what you can explain
You're finding things that you didn't know
I look at you with such disdain



This is the third stanza and again the male in the relationship is expressing discontent in the relationship, saying things like I look at you with disdain, is a major red flag in a relationship.



The walls start breathing, my mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone
A weight is lifted on this evening
I give the final blow



When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight, it ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight, it ends tonight, it ends tonight



Now I'm on my own side
It's better than being on your side



It's my fault when you're blind
Its better that I see it through your eyes
All these thoughts locked inside
Now you're the first to know

The fourth stanza is pretty much giving reason for the breaking up of the girl in the relationship. By saying it's my fault when you're blind; it's saying that she doesn't fully understand him.



When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight, it ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight, it ends tonight

This is the chorus of the song and it is saying that it can't be changed, that the relationship is over, that there is nothing else to say, it’s over.


It ends when darkness turns to light
It ends tonight, it ends tonight
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight, it ends tonight, it ends tonight


Tonight, inside
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight

Life on the Reservation

Life on an Indian reservation has both its ups and downs. On one hand, your part of a community of people who care about each other and are willing to share their recourses, but on the other hand, there are very limited recourses to go around in most reservations, so usually most of the people live in poverty. Gambling is allowed on Indian reservations so that brings in a lot of the wealth that is spread throughout the tribe. This is necessary because the Indian reservations are not given a lot of money by the government.

The major upside of life on a reservation is the comradery of the people that live on the reservation. The Indian people have a proud heritage and background, and have long been known for their kindness and sharing nature. This is shown in the fact that all of the money that the Indian reservation brings in is split between the tribe.

I’m not really sure this is a good thing but, the Indian reservations are not bound by U.S law, so Indian tribe members can escape the law if they have to by going to their reservation, this can obviously be abused. But nevertheless, it is part of reservation life.

If I had the potion to live on an Indian reservation, I would not, mostly because the average person does not seem to have a luxurious life style, but also because I am so comfortable with my current lifestyle it would be hard to make a change so drastic

winter poem

Snow falling, a winters night falling apon the sky, the black sky outside your window, a chirstmas tree in every window, christmas in every house on the block, ginger bread houses on every table, gingerbeard cookies for every stomach, every stomach full by the end of the holidays,

Holidays, a time to live, love, and laugh with all those around you.
