Poem
I thought to write about my High School Social Studies 
book report. An uncomplicated short story about the 
lives of two characters who like to take life the short and 
easy way. I decided to write it as a narrative, showcasing 
the simple characters as carefree drifters. Near the end, 
the lives that they made easy, sadly turned complicated. 
It's about George Milton and Lennie Small. The roaming 
workers shared their dreams of being eventual farm 
owners during the Depression Period. George was the 
smaller and a bit learned of the two. Lennie was taller 
and that made him oafish because of his limited wit. 
Auburn, California, started their course across the state’s 
harsh landscape from one ranch job to another. They 
closed in on a job just outside the town of Soledad. 
Stopping for a swim off the Salinas River, Lennie 
gathered up delicate flowers. He is overwhelmed with 
anything soft, fragile, and pretty. In his zealous nature, 
he hugged it lovingly but much too tightly as they quickly 
withered and died. George noted that oddity before, but 
he thought it as being trifle to be of no concern. As they 
prepared themselves before they arrived at the ranch, to 
a slight degree, the witty George would be a money-saver
 type, and Lennie's character with his notable oddity, is 
simple-minded. Yet on their first day, Lennie strangled 
Candy accidentally. She was the owner's son's pretty 
wife. The rhetoric grew unstable for Lennie wherein 
laid the guilt. George was forced to face some sort of 
retribution with farmhands yakety-yak of a lynch mob 
that would lead to a hanging. Left with that sad chapter, 
George grabbed ahold of Lennie. At a secluded part 
where no noise would be heard. George quickly closed 
that chapter when he took out a pistol he found at the 
farm and he shot Lennie as George fathomed money 
to be his closing grace.
