"The Pedestrian” Before You Read: Life in 2053

Prompt A: Pretend it is 2053. Describe a day in your life. Write a narrative paragraph, with a beginning, middle, and end.

                The year 2053, it’s a distance way of life from 2011. I can remember how the skies were blue, and the white puffy clouds. Now when I look up all I can see is glass, behind the thick glass is the black skies of pollution. We can’t breathe the air out there anymore; the scientist thought it would be better if we were contained.  As I walk the street where there are no cars, I can image the sounds of the engine roaring as it would pass by on the street. I can tell that I am going to be late for school; I can see my teacher yelling at me “Why weren’t you here on time?” I can tell she is going to do this she does it every day.  Classes are faster we only take one class a day, one thing taught a day. We all pull out our computers and watch as the computer writes down the notes as the teacher tells us them. The soft feeling of a text book, the sound of the pages turning, oh how I wish I could have those things.  Its time to go home, my house is just like the others, plain but is huge on the inside. I walk through the door and head straight to my room. I fall into the daily sleep waiting for the next day to come, while I dream of the old years. 

“The Contents of the Dead Man’s Pocket” Minute Paragraph

A minute in my life that felt like forever was when I moved to girls 9. I first moved to San Pasqual Academy in September, it was a hot day and everyone was in school. There were no sounds when I stepped out of the car. All the birds seemed to be silent as they watched the new person step onto their home.  I slowly stepped up the stairs fear filling my body, the door came into my view. They opened the door for me and I looked in, I saw a staff sitting watching tv and said hello as I stepped in. The lady and the man that brought me to the house left. When I looked at the time on the clock I realized it took me only a minute to walk in here and how fast the people left me to the staff.

“Contents of the Dead Man’s Pocket” My Yellow Paper Paragraph

I would risk my life to save my phone. It’s important to me because it has pictures of family and friends. Also because it has my numbers in it and is the only way I connect to my family. Lastly because I’m addicted to it and need it to survive, without it I would go crazy throughout the day. I don’t do anything, I have dropped it and the screen has cracked though.  I would add a case to it to ensure its safe and I would try not to drop it again. That is something I would risk my life to save, that is a nonliving item.

"Contents of the Dead Man's Pocket" Before You Read: Paralyzed by Fear

When I was 13, I was sitting on the cold chair in the school office. I was called up a the last period, I didn't know what the police wanted me for. The officer brought me to a police station then walked me into a room with a man and a women. They started to talk to me about my father, when it was over they lead me to my sister who was crying. The fear grew stronger, we walked to a car and then they told me that I couldn't go home and wasn't able to live with my father. I froze in the car unable to move or talk I couldn't believe what they were telling me, my dad I cant live with him any more. It all seemed so unreal, looking back I think I would still react that way now if I was told that.
