We had some good ideas today in class on what we're going to do for National Poetry Month. I liked Courtney's idea of writing poems on really big paper and putting them up around school or the idea of just leaving poems around everywhere. We kind of need to start planning our event so we need to decide what our event is going to be. I think we should figure out what the event will actually be by the end of this week and then begin planning next week before spring break. So just post your ideas and we can all agree on something.

Part of the story
Dear Diary,
Why am I here? Why me of all people? I just don't understand. My date with Adam went so well that night and I should have just let him take me home instead of insisting I take a cab. Everything was going so well. He could've been the one that would be the father of my two boys. Its been so hard for them growing up without a dad. They see other boys on the baseball field playing catch with their dads and all they have is a lousy mother. If I had just gone with Adam this would not have happened. I wouldn't be here in this....this...cage. I'm not an animal and yet he treats me like one. He stuck me in the back of his car after he picked me up on the street after my date and drove me back to his smelly, low class appartment. He shoved me in a dog pen in his basement and he brings meager meals. Mostly gruel and a piece of bread. I don't know what he plans to do with me. He took all of my money and my cell phone. He calls me Moira and I can't stand it. I can't stop sobbing. I can't bear this much longer. What about my kids? Where are they? Did he hurt them? Will I ever see them again? I have so many questions that have been left unanswered, I don't know what to do. I have to remember to hide this paper as soon as I'm finished. I won't talk to him and I definitely won't let him read my thoughts. He absolutely disgusts me. I'll try to write again soon.
