English 1 Honors

• Artist: philelectricguitar
• Description: This is a poem that's probably a bit bizarre if you aren't in my English class, but it basically is summarizing all these books we had to read about death. I'd bet that most of you have at least read one of these:
  To Kill a Mockingbird
  Cold Sassy Tree
  Old Man in the Sea
  Antigone
  They're all centered around death, and most of them have sad endings! Please Comment!

We love death!
It's the eternal theme of English Honors Class,
We love death!
All the books are filled with blood baths.

Antigone hung herself by a rope,
which rid Haimon of all hope.
He swung at his father with a sword,
but missed, and now he's with the Lord!

We love death!
It's the eternal theme of English Honors Class,
We love death!
All the books are filled with blood baths.

Mr. Ewell had a grudge on the Finches;
he wanted to see them all in lynches.
He tried to stab Jem and Scout with his knife,
but accidentally ended up taking his own life!

We love death!
It's the eternal theme of English Honors Class,
We love death!
All the books are filled with blood baths.

The old man spend the whole day in a boat,
trying to keep the stupid thing afloat!
Too bad the marlin had to die,
After the old man fought and tried.

We love death!
It's the eternal theme of English Honors Class,
We love death!

After poor Mr. Blakeslee worked so hard;
he married Miss Love and bought a car.
Then he had to get sick and die,
probably made his poor unborn child cry.

We love death!
It's the eternal theme of English Honors Class,
We love death!
