How the Pit and Pendulum should've ended.

As the Pendulum's scythe-like blade rose up the condemned man quickly jumped up and grabbed the flat of the blade going up with it. Once the pendulum reached past the trapdoor the character climbed through dark tunnels and eventually came out into a local town unscathed and fine.

Poe

Like most people I prefer to read Edgar Allen Poe instead of other poets. He has this quality in his writing where he draws you into his poem and that grabs your attention and doesn't let go.Most his poems are interesting, suspenseful, and quite exciting. Another think that I like about him is that he isn't very predictable, while reading you can't guess whats going to happen just by reading the title.

Poems

This week we have read many poems. The one I liked the most was Old Ironsides, which was a poem created by Oliver Wendell Holmes. Oliver created this poem to save the Constitution which was a ship actually used in the War of 1812. I think this poem has more meaning then the others we've read and also just seems to flow slightly better, but this is all opinion.

Nature

People these days often think of nature as a bothersome annoyance.  I personally am not the nature type but I think that Nature is very important for the world as a whole. When I think of nature I think of big thick forests and then I think of deforestation and expansion to the point where there won't be anymore forests left. To me this is not smart and should be an issue that needs to be fixed.
