Venezuelan students fighting the government

peacefully fighting only posters and protest

the president, lack of food all wrong

40 people total that are dead

there is no food or simple needs

we need help like a baby learnig too walk

help like a boat sinking

HELP us please

destroy violence

venezuelan is only an example

there are still more than a million examples

Stop violence

The poem is about the protests in Venezuela. One of the problems of why they are protesting is the lack of things.I like the way he talked about Venezuela because he is like protesting to stop the violence in Venezuela.This poems reminds me of the people protesting here in Venezuela.He uses a metaphor on the part that he says "we need help like a baby learnig too walk" and another metaphor when he says "help like a boat sinking". I thinked putting the two metaphors there made the poem better.
