The Breeze
Life is a breeze,
It flows where it please,
Don’t sit down and watch it fly,
Because soon enough, it will go by.
The Breeze (Haiku)
A breeze is like life,
Don’t sit down and watch it fly,
Soon, it will go by.
Megan
There’s this girl I like you see,
I like it when she looks at me,
I like the way she smiles
I like the way she walks,
I even like the ways she talks.
I have to ask her out, oh Megan D.
Will you please go out with me?
Love like Fire
I see her staring,
She looks at me,
I see her flirting,
Can she not see.
The way she makes me feel,
The way I want her mine,
But she will not feel,
That her beauty is so devine.
And so she'll sit as always,
Ignorant and tire
Us as we race,
For her love that is like fire.

The Story of How The Joker Came to Be
It was 1979 when a child by the name of Melvin White was born to two parents know as George and Jessica White. Their identities were meant to be secret for both were kingpins of the Gotham City mob. Heir to millions, Melvin grew up in a rich house with a rich education but a poor understanding of family and parents. His only friends were the books in which he buried himself in. Some say that he never even learned to smile. Mom and Dad were always busy with crime and when they were home, Dad would drink until half conscious and beat his wife into a bloody pulp. Melvin would always watch their fights from upstairs in his room. The backyard where most kids would play was prohibited for Melvin for it contained over thirty graves of his Dad’s past “customers.” At age twelve, Melvin started getting trained to be the next mob leader in line when his father stepped down. At age fourteen, his Dad had been drinking from 4:30 in the morning to 12:00 at night. He had already drunk himself near death four times but was showing no signs of stopping. One day, George White pushed it too far and blacked out. He started to beat at his wife with no particular reason and she tripped and fell on the ground. George did not stop and instead kept on going. Jessica had a kitchen knife ready but it was no struggle for George to overpower her and slash at her with the knife. Melvin had been watching the whole time. George turned to see his frightened son gazing at him through horrified, shining black eyes. They resembled that of his father’s, dead and heartless. Jessica White was the only real friend and human that Melvin ever loved, and now she lay in front of him, cold and unmoving. His father then went to Melvin saying,” Why so serious?” Melvin took two steps back while his Dad took three forwards. ”Why so serious?” he said again. Melvin tried to run but could not escape for he was cornered. “Lets put a smile on that face!” George White said as he grabbed his son by the throat and cut two grousome marks on his child’s face leaving one ghastly smile on his face to mark the day that he would ironically always frown upon. Two days later George White was found upstairs in his study with a shotgun in his mouth and a hole in his head with a note pinned to him reading HA HA HA! A grin was carved upon his face. His grape purple suit and green vest were gone and his only son of fourteen years of age had vanished.
Melvin began a small life of crime at night in order to make money and survive. He would always wear a clown mask in order to hide his face so people could not recognize him by the scars. Around Gotham, he became known as Circus Freak for he always had a creative and almost funny way of doing his crime. During the day he was a failed comedian that always got booed off stage. With little money, Melvin snapped and turned to murder. He began killing for the feeling of revenge that he got when he put someone and their family through the same pain the he felt. One day after a robbery, Melvin dropped a joker card on the floor which forensics found the next morning. The robberies and killings around his neighborhood became known as the “joker killings” or “joker robberies.” From then on, it was as if he got inspired by the fear that he installed in people. Like any serial killer, he began to gradually increase the crimes that he committed from robberies and cons to murder and kidnapping. He was now a true serial killer. He began to carve smiles on the faces of his victims as his sign and began to wear make-up that resembled that of a clown. He adopted a laugh and began to use knives instead of guns(he felt guns were too quick and he wanted to savor the moments in which he tortured and killed people). The Joker would always get arrested. He moved in and escaped from Arkum Asylum countless times. No one was ever able to hold him in a cell for more than two days. The Joker slowly became the greatest threat that Gotham had ever seen.
