Description
In the future there will be a game showThat no one wants to watch or compete in
Where fellow children will be the foe
And they fight to the death, to their chagrin
And the surviving gladiator's life
Will not improve because of sudden fame
They'll be well fed, but there will be much strife
Not hope, for victors of the Hunger Game
How did such a dark future come to pass?
Where this slaughter is backed by government,
A war was won, and rebel lad and lass
Had to kill each other for punishment
Why must their families watch in sheer horror?
Because of the corruption of power

I find the punctuation a little odd. Like, um, you don't have ending line punctuation in the first part, but then in the second part you have question marks and a lone comma hanging out back there.
Horror and power....yeah. XD;;

Yeah, maybe I should have thought out of that better whenever I get around to doing your idea of putting the poems from this class with pictures, I think I'll do some revisions
Oh, oh. By the way, you were in the paper about a week ago for a scholarship you one. I clipped the photo out in case you want it when you get back.

Bahaha, well, I'm just the kind of person that tends to pick out those kinds of unimportant details. 8'D Ohhh but you are planning to do that art poem thing? I'm really excited to do it but the way I'm thinking of has to do more along the lines of, like, a comic or storyboard or music video or something, so. I'm getting demotivated again. Pffff.
And what what whaat! I was in the paper? O: That's so exciting! One organization did take our pictures, but I thought they would've put it in sooner, I guess haha. I am back now, we should have a gettogether sometime and, like, trade Pokemon haha. My house doesn't get the paper anymore anyway, so I probably wouldn't have seen it anyway!

Maybe, I don't know. (I did a Harry Potter poem and I'd like to get that and some accompanying art up by the release of the last movie).
A simple collage of images could work.
They had a picture of you and some other people who got the scholarship.
Oh yes, that would be cool (although I don't know what we'd trade because we both have Black).

Haha, well you'd better work fast then because the movie's gonna come out soon.
Oh, I see! So no article or anything? Haha. Like something like that could get an article, pff.
XD;;; Well, I've already screwed up and accidentally killed that legendary thingy that flies around wherever there's rain, so. If you have that...?
I also have breeded an excessive amount of baby Pokemon eggs from past generations, if you want those. XD;;;

Yeah, I know. But first, I'm finishing Poni's request from weeks ago. I'm about two thirds done....stupid background.
Correct.
Haven't had much luck with it....I've only encountered it once (I suppose I could use the master ball I saved...)
I'll have to see what I have on my old games to transfer.
Where do you breed Pokemon? I thought the daycare you see early in the game only allowed one Pokemon.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh right, that thing with USA and Canada and fireflies? Are you doing it all digitally?
Hmm, I find this ice dragon thingy much harder to catch since it comes at like level 75, but if you're having trouble catching the rainy thingy you could use the masterball. XD I mean, I could trade my ice dragon thingy to you.
Ohhh you have more DS Pokemon games? That'd...probably be easier than breeding eggs. XD
Um, I don't know, but by the time I went back there I'd finished the game and they could take two Pokemon. D: Maybe you can even earlier? I'm not sure.

Colored pencil....although I may redo it digitally later because my cool colors are so limited.
Ice dragon thingy? I looked it up, and i"m not trying that until I've leveled up my monsters...my highest is a level 56 Liepard at the moment...
Yeah, especially since I caught a ton of duplicates.
I'll check back again when I have something I want to breed.

What kind of colored pencil set do you have? I find that usually when you scan in traditional stuff it gets kind of washed out, too. D:
XD;; Wow, really? Have you beat the Elite Four yet? And man I am not a fan of Liepard, it's really fast but dark moves are eh and its defenses are so low. OTL
Haha wow you caught duplicates? I usually just try to catch one of each Pokemon. But then I wanted to make babies. But then after that I got a Ditto, so now I am back to one of each. XD
You'll see a lot when you beat the game haha. It's all the old gen stuff, but they're all evolved so if you wanted the baby forms you have to breed.

Crayola....I'm too cheap to even get roseart until I use up both sets.
I beat them when they had level 50 Pokemon, but I have a lot of training to do before I can beat them for real.
Yeah, sometimes I want a male and female for a certain species, and of course breeding.
Yeah I know. I've been tracking the swarms pretty well on my game. I'm so happy I got a Houndour with Flashfire (and two plusles).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dude, Crayola is so much better than Roseart, don't downgrade to that if you finish your two sets. XD I hear fancypants brands like Prismacolor are good for colored pencil, but I wouldn't know. I:
? Beat them for real? Like, you mean the second time?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh really? I had a roseart set a while back that I lost, and it seemed to have a much better variety than my crayolas (and both were 24 packs). I'm not getting anything prismacolor until I improve a lot and use up what I've got.
Yeah. The first time didn't count because I didn't fight the champion. So now I have to beat the crud out of wild pokemon until my team goes up by 15 or so levels.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Is that so? Haha. I guess I was mostly upset that the colors on the outside of the pencil weren't the actual colors that came out when I colored. That and the black was clearly a dark brown. Pff.
? So you just fought the Elite Four and then left?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, that's a bit annoying.
Don't you remember? You beat the last one, the stairs to the champion's room appear, you walk in, Alder has lost to N and this big ass castle appears out of no where and you have to fight the dragon, N, and Ghetis instead of Alder. And then next time you try to beat the Elite Four they have Pokemon in the 70's. By delivering daily beatings to the people in the stadiums in Nacrene city and exploring the post game area, I've been able to get my team up to the mid to high 60's, so I may be ready to rematch in a week (although maybe sooner, I accidentally fought Cynthia's level 75's with my level 60's and almost won, so maybe I should try once everyone's caught up with Musharna).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
OHHHHH. The second time! Right! Haha I haven't done that yet, I've been too busy forcing my Pokemon to make babies with my Ditto. 8'D I do quite understand the daily beatings inflicted upon the fans and players at the stadiums, though, I do it often as well....
And oh goodness when I first accidentally battled Cynthia I was like WHYYYYYYYY D8 ALL I WANTED TO DO WAS EXPLORE NEW PLACES OTL

Where do you catch Dittos?
It's necessary because you need the high level Pokemon to fight.
I know. I did not expect talking to her would result in a battle.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Um! I think you have to wait until the in-between-places TV says there's a Pokemon outbreak, which I've assumed to mean you can then encounter old Pokemon in the grass. Then go to the Route of that cave with the ice dragon, the foggy canyon place. I'm pretty sure! That's where I got my Ditto. :3 I haven't seen one since, though... I:

Ok, I'll wait until that (or send some of the extras from my old games).

Sending extras from your old games would probably be faster. XD;;

Haha sticking it to Stephenie Meyer. THANK YOU <3
Horror and power don't really rhyme but oh well. I really like this sonnet, basically gives the audience a look and feel for what the book is about if they haven't read it. I should really find and finish reading the first in the series sometime.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're welcome.
I'm not Shakespeare. That's all I can say.
This poem was fun to write, and I may do something like this again (but not a sonnet) to show some love for other things I like.
Get reading, to the library!

I can't wait to read more from you. Especially the Edward one hehe.
Tomorrow for sure I'll go to the library. Hopefully I can go without mom getting sidetracked again
