Literature That Speaks

John Green says to us

A labyrinth

The true definition of society

The true definition of this world we live in

Alaska asks him, “How do we escape this labyrinth of suffering?”

Pudge says “To forgive.”

We must forgive who mutilated our spirits

We must go throughout the world as if it were an eternal labyrinth

A maze

A puzzle

A perilous journey

Pudge says, “To Forgive.”

So I think I will

 

Johnathon Larson states

No Day But Today

The motto that should be cherished

Angel lies in a hospital bed dying

Collins cries to save his one true love

Mimi sleeps in the park

Shivering, wheezing, in pain

Roger is nowhere to be found

Both couples loved each other

But they did not cherish what they had

Tomorrow is not guaranteed

Yesterday has past

Today is all we have, therefore make use of it

 

Suzanne Collins argues

Our people are dying

They are starving

Cry out for help, but no one is there to hear

Children suffer

Babies scream as they go to bed famished

Parents are being consumed

Children assume their roles

Must urgently mature 

Must sacrifice childhood to survive

And the government keeps a blind eye

They use fear and hopelessness as a tactic to remain in control

Issues can be resolved, but they desire not to

President Snow said it best

“Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.”

Hope is the only thing that can help us survive in the midst of hell

We must have hope for a better day

The sun will come out Tomorrow

 

I inform that

Each quote’s influence began in a piece of literature

Literature is education

Education influences readers to be enlightened

To Hope

To Dream

To Live

Literature teaches morals

Ignorance is the reason for corruption

If the world can change in anyway

It would be for more people to read

Reading is the door to possibilities

Possibilities that are endless.
