Ashlynn Hederson Poem
What would happen if there was no happily ever after?
Would the stories we love now still be passed on?
Or would we abandon their worlds because we couldn’t hide inside them?
What would happen without the “evil” characters?
What hardships would the main characters endure?
Dorothy had the Wicked Witch,
Sleeping Beauty had Maleficent,
Jack Frost had the Boogey Man,
Without the bad ones,
There would be no story,
Yes they are “bad”,
But everyone is guilty of something,
The Wicked Witch grew up with a mother that didn’t want her,
Maleficent was hurt,
The Boogey Man was jealous,
That doesn’t make them bad,
It shows that they have flaws,
If you switched around the roles,
Made GOOD become BAD,
Where would we be then?
The stories would be better,
Relatable,
Honest,
Don’t judge a book by its cover,
Because behind even the toughest covers,
There is a story full of secrets,
Waiting to be discovered.

Ashlynn Hederson Poem
One attack can trigger a full on war,
One voice can stir up a nation,
One decision can screw up everything.
Why does it have to be this way?
Why can’t people have their own ways of life,
And live safely believing them?
Why can’t this world find peace?
We are all here.
We all have goals.
One thing that we have in common is the will to survive,
Today the world fell out of place.
We turned on each other.
We screwed up.
We killed.
Why can’t this stop?
This world lost it’s way.
Murdering,
Unsympathetic.
Today the world fell out of place.
But this time?
I don’t think we can fix it.
