MAGNETIC POETRY!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Smoke Contains Me
-Nick De Bari, Kathy Perez, Jeff Lotz, and Jessica Norman

My innocence was taken by rage.

Your influences are practiced

through violence and purple smoke.

Inhale the addiction,

tally up the classmates.

All injuries are made from the sickness

of that burning cigarette.

No strength left to

wield the knife

into my now useless life.

The darkness carries the regret in smoke.

MAGNETIC POETRY!!!!!!!!!

No More than Friends
-Nicholas De Bari, Jessica Norman and Kathy Perez


Friends smile, laugh, cry and motivate.
We fear romance, the splash of a kiss.
But we dove into
the sweet sharing of bliss.
From the time we collided at the party,
drama was spread like a hurricane:
The rumors swirled,
gossip destroyed everything that we shared.
So we brought in relief
And tried to repair what went wrong.
Now we are two broken hearts,
that will always be no more than friends.
