Poetry Safety Belt


Step right up, step right up!

To the most scariest, craziest, dangerous

Rollercoaster you've ever experienced: LIFE!

What makes it so scary?

NO SAFETY BELTS!

But wait, there's more!

YOU CHOOSE YOUR SAFETY BELT!

What will keep you safe?

WHAT WILL NOT?

Oh, what's this?

You're choosing poetry?

Just a pen and paper?

You're going to face LIFE with just poetry?

Smart girl.
