Who I Am

There are lots of fandoms out there for books and mythology and movies.  In this poem, I took 4 of these things and put them into a poem. This poem shows you my characteristics and where I'd belong if these things weren't just fiction.

This is who I'd be... and who I am.


Who I Am

They say I am
A daughter of Zeus
God of all gods
Of sky and storms
Of lightning and thunder

With commitment issues
A short temper
I am a natural leader
Prepared to take on
The most difficult tasks

They say I am
A member of Daultness
The faction that values
Bravery above all else
With courage leading my decisions

I wear all black
And am strong
Mentally and physically
I will protect
And be unafraid

They say I live in
The fourth district of Panem
I am one with water
I become the waves
Drifting back and forth

I know my sea creatures
And my trident
Is light in my hand
The water calms me
And I, it

They say I am
In the house of Slytherin
Green and white
A serpent on my shoulders
And radiating ambition

Intelligent and quick-thinking
Never doubting myself
Light on my feet
Confident and prepared
Cunning and resourceful

Because I am
Strong and brave
And confident
I like who I've become
This is who I choose to be

If you want to find out where you belong in a lot of different series,
then I encourage you to take this quiz:
http://www.thefandom.net/fandom-fun/quizzes/universal-fandom-quiz/
The only thing it won't tell you is who
your Greek god/goddess parent is.  You'll have to search elsewhere
for that type of quiz.  I'd link one but I took just about
every quiz there was on Google and got Zeus every single time.
Which I thought was lame because I wanted someone less
well-known but whatever. I'll take what I get.

Lastly....
Greek Mythology: Zeus
Divergent: Dauntless
Hunger Games: District 4
Harry Potter: Slytherin

I Picture a World

I Picture a World
Jordan Winans
 A Creative Writing Assignment

I picture a world
Where women are given equal opportunities to men.  They are given the same pay.  They are not cat-called or told they deserve to be raped due to their “scantily clad” clothing.

I picture a world
Where racial slurs are not said.  Black males won’t have to feel anxious around cops for fear of being shot or choked to death.  Immigrants will not be looked down upon for having accents- because people will realize how intelligent they are for learning a new language and how brave they are for moving to a new place.

I picture a world
Where you can marry whomever you love.  Whether you’re straight, bi, gay, lesbian, pansexual, or anything else.  You’ll be able to stay wherever you live and not have to flee to a freer state to say “I do.”

I picture a world
Where all religions are accepted.  Buddhists can meditate and Muslims can pray and Jews can state their points of view and Christians can be baptized and nobody will be anything but completely respectful… even when someone chooses to not believe in a higher power at all.

I picture a world
Where I am known for what I love.  What music I listen to and my favorite shows.  Which movies I know all the lines to.  I won’t be judged for the color of my hair or the amount of piercings I have or if you can see a canvas of tattoos on my skin.

I picture a world
Where no human rights are violated.  Where people are kind.  Where everyone feels loved and important.  Where no one feels unsafe.  Where suicide isn’t an option because people love life.
           
I picture a world

            Where we are happy.
