    last a lifetime. When I look back at it boy was I wrong. I made these friends and we became a clique because we all were on the Track & Field team together composing of all white males and females, in the seventh grade. We were an “exclusive” group and had aggression toward others and often resulted in fights (2/29). This was a consequence of the friends I had, and now I laugh looking back at these times.

    Creative Response to Between Shades of Grey Like jolting the body of a new born baby till its fragile bones go crack, it saddens me that I compare this level of evil to the plans of the officers. Like horribly sick minded scavengers, they steal and split innocent families. They turn their worlds to ice. Black ice. Their lives become battles to make it through each day.
