The Mirror Game

Watch Jonathan play "mirror" to Mo Beasley... 
Zombies
Flesh so tender
Flesh so sweet
Please don't shoot me
Please don't kill me
Please don't hurt me
Please don't yell at me
I need some blood
I'll be your friend
Help me spread my wrath
Don't take me back to the underworld.

I Am
I am a valley, low like negative twenty,
I am Nancy squared.
I am as bright as the full moon - 
I am the best of both worlds -  hell and heaven.

Food for Thought
When I eat my mom’s macaroni and cheese 
It makes me want to dance!
Fried chicken tastes like heaven - 
Chicken grease drips like raindrops.
You are chicken sweet!

The following poems are group student  works created during our 2013 Brooklyn Reads workshops...

Who says...

Who says I’m stupid?   
Who says I’m not cool?  
(I do!)

Who says I’m crazy?  
Who says I’m not cute?   
(I do!)

Who says I’m retarded?
Who says I’m not smart? 
(I do!)

Who says I’m wrong?
Who says I’m not independent?  
(I do!)

We say we're different...just like you.
We are chicken sweet!
