The Turben and Barder

This is a prompt from the above picture from http://www.janvonholleben.com/?page_id=4


Barder the flying dog and his friend James are on an adventure to the moon. Whenever James puts on the turban, Barder recieves the ability to fly. Tonight was a very special night because the moon was full and made lots of light in the sky. And since Barder was a magical dog, when he flew he left behind magic dust. Barder flew higher, and higher, and James was about to see his city with all the houses and the people walking. Then he looked away, and stared at the moon, it was so beautiful. Then the next thing James realized was it was time for school.

Government

I think we need to worry about our own country not everyone else. We have starving kids, homeless, people that don’t get medical care or education. We need to change our nation before we can help others. We need to look hard into our own flaws in our system and by fixing what’s wrong with our nation can we fix others. If we don’t have a working system how can we impose our system into others? We need to learn from our mistakes and work on them, like the health care system, the immigration system, laws and regulations, and the standards of living for low income families. By working on this we can increase the nations GDP and in the end lift up a country as a whole not divided into pieces, we are the United States not the just State, we work united and fall united.

Writing in Reverse

This next piece is called Writing in Reverse, and it is taken from Bill Sullivan's Photography Project.



Roger is his name and he had no car because he worked for a company that didn't pay him to well, so he had to take the subway to and from work. Today he is coming from work and going to a far away strip club because he doesn't want to be seen by anyone he knows. The name of the club is Pure Platinum and is located on the outskirts of town. His face shows he had a long day at work and he wants to relax, this is his way of relaxing because he doesn't have a girlfriend and still lives with his parents at the age of 42. Roger is in a hurry because he doesn't want to get stuck in the rush hour and the clib has happy hour in 20 minutes. He goes to this club because around this time he gets really stressed out at work and needs a break. However, today was his unlucky day, he was seen at the club by one of his co-workers. Adam came up to Roger and asked did I just see you in that strip club, and Roger didn't say anything and just walked away.
