For my Narrative Project, I wrote a detailed scene from my freshman year of high-school when I got the news that my mom had been in a serious motorcycle accident. I was sitting in class when I received a text message and my story relives that moment as well as the rest of that day. This blog post will contain two sections. In the first section I will be creating a free-form excerpting and remixing Found Poem. The second section will consist of a reflection about the content in my Narrative Project.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Section I: Found Poem The Anchor Faintly, burning, sinking Beams of light into the ocean Anchor from the night before Overlooking, and Sinking lower, rushed, and rolled over Humid, hectic, plump Twisting and wrapping Slamming in her face Cracked and fractured Skimmed burning eyelids Exploding all over Panic overlooking and Replayed to the fifth floor Shooting through the roof An accident ZZZZ ZZZ Gibberish Flush the words Leaking Uncontrollably The blank stare My brain trying The vibe, Clammy and cracked Unreasonable and scary Feeling the smell Clenched my breathing Released And Rescued WAKE UP And relief In control In that moment Lucky to be alive, world ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Section II: Reflection

This poem almost feels like you're trapped in a beautiful nightmare or a dark dream. Like I feel like there's so much chaos and confusion yet lifeless tide pulling you in and out. It just seems captivating.
