Word Limit: 350-450 words
It felt like a dream, a storage where food, I have only heard in children stories were abundant. It has been a few days since I started running errands for the major, though it was a gamble, I had to take it. Now I had all the delicacies Ember had on offer and the girl all to me. It was easy to get Lizzie to like me, I just had to show off a can of peaches, telling her I would give it to her. Her reaction was to be expected, it just emphases my loss of hope of the city of ember. Everyone is driven by dark internal monsters known as greed.

    In fact, she “tried to buy ten cents worth of prussic acid” (Taylor). This suspicious action made everyone believe that Lizzie had wanted to poison her targets. In addition to this, it is uncommon for someone to go to a corner store and ask for that kind of substance, unless they needed to carry out a task that involved the poison being used as an exterminant. Lizzie especially, was involved with organizations and created a well image for herself (“Borden, Lizzie”). With such a beneficial image, no one suspected her to try and purchase poison.…

    Essay A Written Task For The Great Gatsby

    Rationale: Throughout the Great Gatsby novel, despite the extravagant parties that are held by Jay Gatsby in his mansion in particular, he is still remotely isolated from the public’s connection, as he remains to be recognized as a mysterious person. Since F.Scott Fitzgerald introduced Jay Gatsby as an isolated figure in the society throughout the novel, therefore the main objective of this written task is to introduce the true identity behind Jay Gatsby to the society and public. In-order to accomplish this task, I will be writing a written task based on Jay-Gatsby’s statement to a press conference where he will declare his true background stories and identity to the society as a whole. This type of text will allow me to explore my creativity…

    Reflective Essay: Thomas Jefferson Middle School

    Long, wide roads, small houses, and steel fences were my view as I walked into an unfamiliar building called Thomas Jefferson Middle School. I did not know anything about the culture or the language; a huge chill came over me, which I have never felt before. I felt goose bumps as I first walked in the building. The building was old and was not well cared for. The colors of the walls were fading and the elevators made the sound of a dying animal when it moved.…

    Baseball Narrative

    We sat on the hot metal of the bleachers outside of the baseball field. The rainy days of Spring were replaced with the sweltering heat of the Summer, and hearing the clink of a baseball hit a bat in the Summer had become a tradition for almost five years. My older brother Dakota had spent those years being bombarded by sweat, mud, and the encouragement of his family, friends, and coaches when the team needed to hit a ball or when he wanted to show off how much better he had gotten since the last season. We were all ready for the season to be over so that we could plan our almost yearly trip to Virginia to visit our Aunt, Uncle, and our almost overwhelming blue-eyed cousins, Liam and Carlile. When the baseball season had come to a happy--or sad--ending, we would plan the trip and be piling into the car within the next week or two, to go on the getaway…

A series of the food items being consumed are listed, beginning with, carrots, peas, courgettes, a seemingly intentional choice of foods that may seem unappealing and mirror the characters repulsion of food. The closing stanza is intentionally ambiguous. It mimics the use of a list from the first stanzas except includes a list of luxurious foods. The stanza proceeds with, “She knew where she was all right, clambered onto the greasy breast of a goose, opened wide, then chomped and chewed and gorged; inside the Fat Woman now, trying to get out”.…
