"I will find my way to the Pacific to the island known as Kona a fist of white stones and I will write you like the poem that you are".  Carrie Rudzinski has a way with words in her poem "Open Letter To The Last Person I Will Ever Love", as she speaks of her adoration towards her last love.  She enunciates each special thing in a way that leaves you with a feeling what she has felt  "you are the only voice in the night I will ever call back to", "you are everything and nothing like what I have waited for" and in the end she says she has "a hope that I'd never dream of you so I am constantly discovering what I have".
  Sarah Kay starts off with a line from Richard Siken's poem by saying "everybody needs a place; it shouldn't be inside someone else" and so as she goes on to perform her poem she is trying to give off the message of being smarter then some people may make you feel, knowing your boundaries and to "not mistake yourself for a gurdian" beacuse you can be stonger and "you were born to build".

O Captain, My Captain:

 

Harsh decision, difficult one to…but really it’s not.  I deserve to keep circulation oxygen through my respiratory system  because with me dead there will be one less person listening to the Beatles, one less employee working at Starbucks (and I need to give my two weeks’ notice).  I am 130 pounds of pure beauty; I am scheduled for a meeting next week with one of the top modeling agencies in the world so with me alive I can make me and the surviving crew loaded. Walking into my house would be like a lush green jungle of doe. Some of it a reward for sparing my life. You and your family will never have to work another day in your life.  Harkamal, yah she wants to be a doctor but let’s be honest who’s going to make a bigger difference in lives with the cures my money will be finding. Besides the looks, I am going to school for nursing and will be hands on with everything my donations go towards. So the question is, is this really a difficult decision?

 

Sincerely,
