Phillip Phelps tkm poem

Segregation

Segregation is like being
locked in a room,

Segregation is like being one color
mixed with ten of another color,

Segregation is like being
made fun of,

Segregation is like Tom Robinson,

Tom Robinson is like a mockingbird,

Boo Radley is like a monster
when no one see’s him,

Tom was accused of rape but was innocent,

Boo was really white and nice,

Tom was nice and helpful,

Atticus is a Lawyer
but reminded me of Tom Sawyer.

Wonderful Phil! I absolutely love how you use simile throughout your poem to get a message across. My favorite part is the beginning:

Segregation is like being
locked in a room,

Keep up the good work.
