The Beginning
We stand in perfect rows
Armed with ammunition
We stand in perfect rows
Faces full of determination
We stand in perfect rows
The army comes marching towards us
A gunshot is heard
Chaos, frenzied, scattered, panic
The war has begun
Note: This is sort of based on the start of the Revolutionary War. That war really did change the world. So I wrote in the POV of a minute-man.

alright so i really liked this poem up to the point where you added the explanation/ civil war stuff -- mostly because it kinda took away the mystery of the poem and i initially wondered if you were in some sort of gang violence. lol but the poem part was very good -- very literal yet poetic
Fantastic poem, I like how you took the assignment and showed a personal side of a global issue. I loved it.
