Pencil

If not
for this
little skinny
wooden stick
I would not
be here.
I could
not have finished
that incredibly
hard test.
I mean,
I guess I
could use a
pen,
but that is no pencil.

    I really like the changes you made in this poem since you read it in class. Your last line sings!

    I think your poem is very creative, and I can hear your voice in it too. I like the way you said, "but that is no pencil." It kind of made me think about how much we use pencils, and now I am a lot more thankful of them. Your post reminds me a lot of Matia's post because paper and pencils go together. Without either of them we draw as well, or write without taking as much space up. You'd have to cross out words or sentences you don't like, and rewrite them. And that would take up a lot of space fosho. Nice job!
