"People are people,
No matter how small"
Or no matter how tall
Or how much they love
How little they hate
People are people.
People are complex,
But simple all the same.
With thoughts,
Feelings,
Simplifying everything
To something they can comprehend.
With ideas and fantasies
Hopes and doubts.
People are different
In all the same ways.
Human ideas fuel our minds,
Fill our thoughts.
But only human ideas.
You cant help but wonder,
Is there anything else than what we think?
Is there more, or less?
Well i sure as anything dont know,
But i guess its unsafe to assume that there isnt anything at all.
Studying people, from far away, like a whole new species,
In and of itself.
So complexly simple that they can only be described as people.
I thought this was good. I liked how you started with that famous saying from Horton the elephant. Also, I liked in the second to last stanza how you had like a devil's advocate type thing going. The only thing that would make it better would be if you used more interesting words. Other then that, fantastic
ReplyDeleteWOW! Theres not much I can say other than you did another outstanding poem. I love to read you writing and I really hope that you continue to write and think about making it your career because you have a talent.
ReplyDeleteThis poem shows how as people we are all different which makes us the same. It really tells you that you shouldnt treat people diferently because of what they look like or how they act, you should treat everybody the same. Therefore this poem is a great life lesson on its own.
ReplyDeleteThis poem is amazing because it tells people that we are all diffrent.In the text it states that,"People are people,No matter how small Or no matter how tall Or how much they love How little they hate People are people."Therefore this show that people are diffrent because in the example above it talks about how people are diffrent in many ways.
ReplyDeletethat was a great poem, emphasis on the great because it made me think about all of the unfair stereotypes in our world. for example People are people,No matter how small Or no matter how tall Or how much they love How little they hate. this evidence shows common stereotypes and says that they aren't always true
ReplyDeletethis was a really interesting poem. I like the whole concept of the human ideas. I also like how you said that people are complex and simple because that's true. People can be easy to figure out but you can also have no idea what they are doing. Good poem.
ReplyDeleteThis was a great poem because it shows how people are humans are all similar in a way and how our species is very simple in some ways. In the poem it stated that, "People are complex,But simple all the same.With thoughts, Feelings, Simplifying everything. To something they can comprehend." This shows that people are simple and similar because we all have thoughts and feelings. Therefore, this shows that people are simple and similar in some ways.
ReplyDeleteI like this poem because it is true. The poem says, "People are complex,But simple all the same.With thoughts,Feelings" I lie this part because sometimes we think less of someone but really they are a person with thoughts and feelings. So, I liked this poem.
ReplyDeleteI like this poem because it has a strong meaning. For example, when it says, "People are people,
ReplyDeleteNo matter how small Or no matter how tall Or how much they love How little they hate People are people." This part in the poem is a saying, but the whole rest of the poem is written about the saying/quote. The poem really shows how people are just humans that are all similar in different ways. Therefore, I liked this poem because of it's strong and meaningful message.
I really liked how you based this poem off of a quote, I thought it was very creative. This poem made me think because I honestly haven't thought about people like this before. I also liked the message that I got from this poem how people are just people. Therefore I think this was a great poem that made me think, sent a message, and was creative.
ReplyDeleteI really liked this poem because I actually kind of thinking about a similiar topic to this. This poem had excellent descriptions and it made me think even further about my own thoughts. This isn't a poem that people should read and say "oh, that was nice" but instead actually think about and try to develop ideas off of it.
ReplyDeleteI liked this poem and its message, however, near the end you threw in several long stanzas, which really throws of the rhythm of the poem. Also, I think (for lack of a better word) that those long stanzas are kind of awkward.
ReplyDeleteI really like this poem. Its message is very strong. It told me that people are people no matter what, and everyone needs to be treated the same. Also, you described everything so it was either to understand. Nice job!
