Punch

pain on someone else, peer pressure on wanting to be expected, and suffering a large amount of punishment as found on page 1 paragraph 5. Bystanders do not cause as much damage as bullies do. All bystanders do is watch bullying happen. Bullies kick, punch, and push people. That is my last reason of why being a bully is worse than being a…

resembled the mouthpiece of dad's clarinet. I remember his lips pressed in the center, the corners limp, as if he forced himself to imagine the route his breath would take through his horn. How did he learn it was easier to teach his son to take a punch than to teach him music or Polish? I pretended to be free from fear as we worked. When he practiced, I watched his eyes follow the last note like a carpenter checking his cut. Before I was drafted, he accused me of being weak because I didn't…

girls, had comments made about us, which sounded like “you’re too white to be doing that.” The fights that occurred were usually between blacks; you heard racial slurs—“Nigger, ghetto-ass nigger”—being shouted to one another as they threw another punch, or pushed the other into the lockers. So, after Claudia Rankin’s speech, I still believe that being racially color blind is a thing for many people and for many races. However, I also think that many are still ignorant to each race/culture and…

Stargirl is an extraordinary story that helped me understand how people can change people, and the big difference it makes our their lives. It showed me that if you have confidence, it makes it a lot easier to get through life. Most importantly it showed that kindness is more than opening a door for someone, it's doing good all around you, which might influence others. Leo knows that he loves Stargirl the strange yet compelling person she is, but he knew if he showed these feelings than people…

Although Claggart did prove to have a grudge against him, Billy refused to accept it. In anger Billy froze, then threw a fist at Claggart’s forehead. The force knocked Claggart off his feet and then took his life. Billy him self was shocked that the punch had been so damaging. He would never consider taking the life of any man! Vere shouldn’t have sentenced Billy to death because he wasn’t a trouble maker, the death was accidental and it wasn’t worth the loss of a crewman.…

If my heart were a metronome for an elegant musician, they would have been thrown off by the double almost triple beats that were going on per second. The crowd would be offended and throw rancid food at her delicate face. The dilemma with this was it would be all my fault. My stomach itself was like a butterfly garden. By holding my breath they would not be able to migrate to their balmy shelters, instead they would be stuck in my bleak torrid pit. The discomfort I would soon face was…

Another of his best known poems is “The Importance of Proofreading”. Here, using bad English he tells a story about being such a bad speller when he was a child. He says that his teacher used to tell him that he won’t get in any good college. So, he decided to buy a speller. In this poem he wants to point out how important the proofreading is. The proofreading helps you to check that you have included everything you wanted to say in any piece of writing. Also, it gives you a chance to review…

Jason Bock doesn't know what he believes anymore, spiritually speaking. A self-described agnostic-going-on-atheist, he does know that he doesn't buy into his parents' Catholicism. When the local bully lays him out with a punch, Jason gets a literal new perspective on the town's water tower—the tallest structure in the area, it has a presence. Not to mention a belly full of the stuff-of-life: water. He figures that worshiping the town water tower is as arbitrary as any other god or religion, so…
