The seven emotions, Harris Burdick inspired

"the seventh one ended up in France"


This first poem was inspired by a Harris Burdick piece.
     

               
There are many different things you can feel,
Some say there are millions of different emotions you can feel,
but an emotion is like a color,
you can take a certain amount of original colors to make a new one,
There are primary emotions,

1) Anger is an emotion characterized by antagonism toward someone or,
Something you feel has deliberately done you wrong.
Anger can be a good thing.
It can give you a way to express negative feelings,
or motivate you to find solutions to problems.
2) Fear is an emotion induced by a threat perceived by living entities,
Which causes a change in brain and organ function and ultimately a change in behavior,
Such as running away,
Hiding,
Or freezing from traumatic events.
3)Disgust is an emotional response of revulsion to something considered offensive
Or unpleasant.
Because disgust is an emotion with physical responses to undesirable or dirty situations, studies have Proven there are cardiovascular
And respiratory changes while experiencing the emotion of disgust.
4) Contempt, 
Findings on contempt are less clear,
Though there is at least some preliminary evidence that this emotion
And its expression are universally recognized
5)Joy, is much less attainable,
Yet the most rewarding.
Many people never find joy,
Always living in a world of sadness.
6) Surprise is,
To cause to feel wonder,
Astonishment,
Or amazement, as at something unanticipated
7)Sadness,
Affected with or marked by unhappiness,
As that caused by affliction.
The seventh emotion,
The most hated by everyone,
Yet the most necessary.

Art walk

So, this is not the exact painting that I was given, and it is also sideways, but this looks very similar to the one I was presented. This reminds me of the time that my family and i went to the beach with my neighbors. We lived in Virginia beach at the time, and we all decided to take a trip to the beach. So we loaded up the families, and drove to the beach. The only reason that this memory stands out very much to me, is that my neighbors kid, he was like, 3 at the time got stung by a jellyfish. My neighbor ended up having to pee on him, which was really gross, but kinda cool in a way.

My reflection, a horror story

My reflection

      I pulled my hair up into a tight ponytail, ready to leave for the night. I’m staring in the mirror when suddenly my reflection smiles, laughs and turns and walks out of the mirror entirely, leaving me looking into a pit of darkness. Fear shot through me faster than a bullet. My heart beating faster with each second I stand there in shock. I closed my eyes ad reopened them, nothing, but black. I reached my hand out to touch the mirror. The tip of my fingers past through the glass. Instinctively, I jerked my arm back. Then the curiosity won over and I reached in again, this time sticking my whole hand inside the mirror. When I went through the mirror, I could feel the pricks of something unnatural grasping my skin.

      Then I was in. It was a shade of opal all around me, I could see nothing but the other side of my mirror. I decided that I have seen enough, so I turned around and tried to leave. When I reached my hand through the mirror all I hit was glass. I saw my reflection looking back at me, smiling, pulling her hair into a ponytail. Her eyes were not my eyes, they were all white. I have dark brown eyes, maybe someone will notice. And at that though, her eyes faded into my shade. She laughed again and waved goodbye to me.

      I turned around, and started to run. There had to be another way out. I ran, and ran and there was nothing. No way out, I was trapped. I began to walk back to the mirror, in hope that the portal would reopen. Then I felt a cold wind flow from the direction of my mirror. Then something that felt like a hand was making its way up my leg. I screamed and tried to shake whatever was touching me, off of my body but no matter what I tried it kept on going. It inched its way up, not missing a spot. I collapsed and began to scream out for help. The hand made its way to my face and opened my mouth. The lights flickered on for just half of a second, and there were billions of creatures surrounding me, but there was nobody touching me. I tried to reach out and touch whatever it was that made its way near my neck, and I felt nothing. Until I reached behind me and felt a body. It was a woman’s body, and the lights flickered on once again. I quickly whipped my head around, and it was me. My reflection grasped my neck and then there was nothing.

Dan in Real Life Questions

1.       Dan writes a column on parenting advice but has a lot of trouble parenting. Do you think it is important to write about what you know?

A-I think that you really don’t need to know exactly what you are writing about. If you are giving advice, then all you really need to have is experience. People can learn from, not your infinite knowledge but, your experience, and your mistakes. I’m sure that there are many parents that learned from Dan’s single parenting mistakes.

2.       What are three Tips you would give parents of teenagers?  

A-“Children are people, and they should have to reach to learn about things, to understand things, just as adults have to reach if they want to grow in mental stature. Life is composed of lights and shadows, and we would be untruthful, insincere, and saccharine if we tried to pretend there were no shadows. Most things are good, and they are the strongest things; but there are evil things too, and you are not doing a child a favor by trying to shield him from reality. The important thing is to teach a child that good can always triumph over evil.” ― Walt Disney Company  Treat your child like a person who needed your help. Offer to them your wisdom as an equal. That is all that we ask for.  

3.      Can you fall I love with someone in three days?

A-Personally I think that you can fall in lust with someone in only three days, but I think that love is a whole other level. “I never thought true love existed and then I met you. You showed me so much of love and have filled my heart. I never want to lose you. I never want to be apart. Hold me in your arms and let me live there for the rest of my days”. - Ronny Clarke This quote shows that really it is just different for everyone.
