Slavery Ballad Poem

Slaves were owned by whites

Many would try to run away in the night

They would pick up cotton in the light

Slaves would have to follow the code

Harriet Tubman lead the underground railroad

Blacks were punished and it showed

Slaves were hurt outside and within

There labor work got cut off by using the cotton gin

Whites did everything so there full of sin

Aboltionist hated slavery

Many blacks standed up for them selfs they had bravery

Slaves had to live in misery

Slaves couldn't be in groups

Many had to live under the same roof

Slaves wanted to be equal and thats one of there truths

My Playstation 2

I would play my Playstation 2 24/7

If I had died at a young age I would want a Playstation 2 in heaven

I was addicted, people recommended that I should see a doctor or a reveran

On the weekends I would play in the moring to the night around 11

I stared at the T.V. too much I thought I need eye medication

Instead of family reunions it would be Playstation

If any one would ever want to find me they knew I would be at my playstation station

I would play when it's sunny and when there was precipitation

When ever I would smell fire I would think it's my T.V.

I would always play W.W.E

I would always think of stragedy's in my dreams

I would be so attached to my Playstation I thought we had some common genes

My PS2 controller is what I would catched

I hated it when my games when they were scratched

Evertime I saw the controll by it's self I would always snatch

When it comes to PS2  I would always challange anyone to a match

I would get money to buy games

I would never buy racing games because they were lame

Every game I liked, I tryed my best to contain

Instead of a wire to my controller it would be a chain

I was playing playing at the age of 10 but now I'm 14

The last thing I would do with my PS2 is lenting

With my games I would have renting

If I see someone that needs to have it then I'll be senting

My PS2 still rocks

I have moved on to an X-box

I would play it so much it would hurt my kindey

It's not just an X-box it's an X-box 360

That old PS2 is now a black box that is nothing

When I was ten it was everything

Now what I do with my PS2 things is collecting

My mom wants to give it away or throw it away but I'm still defending
