Consequences of rushing


Before going out, she eats curry.

Outside she goes down the road.

She sees the time, she needs to hurry.

Then she ends up running over a toad.

<p>This poem is fun to read. The emotion I mainly get from reading this is stress. This person is stressed out and scrambling around, she is racing mindlessly to try and catch up on time only to run over a toad. My favorite line would have to be, &quot;Then she ends up running over a toad.&quot; It adds a side of comedy to this poem, but it doesn&#39;t get away from the theme. The structure is good, and everything stays on topic and is clear to read.</p>

Great Poem!</span></span></p><div>&nbsp;</div>
