Mirror Mirror, Lie to meI stare at my mirrorSo shocked by what I seeThere is a strange womanStaring right back at meI must've been abductedThis must be a crazy trickFor the reflection that I seeIs making me quite sickAre those horrid wrinkles?Is that a double chin?The neck that was my joyIs pillar like- not thin!My eyes have no sparkleThey look listless and glazedIt gets so hard to focusWhen all I feel is dazedMaybe it's just a dreamFrom which I will awakeFor how could that be me?I'm sure it's just a fakeI pinch myself real hardThe mirror woman screamsOh no, it must be trueNow both of us cry streamsMirror, you're a traitor!!!Mirror, this is a crime!!!I order you to hide!!!The tell-tale signs of time!!!Do me a small favorTell me a little lieReflect a younger me...Oh please,give it a try!Satire Poem by Kyla Artison

Satire Poem: Mirror Mirror, Lie to me
Book Review
Of Mice And Men
Name of the Book:
Of Mice And Men
Author:
John Steinbeck
Publisher:
Covici Friede
Date of Copyright:
Copyright John Steinbeck, 1937.
Copyright renewed by John Steinbeck, 1965.
Price:
$5.51
Plot:
Of Mice and Men is a well-known classic, and with valid reason. The book may seem rather boring (as many books about the Great Depression may seem) but it is actually a great tribute to literature.
The book is about a man called George and his childlike, kind-hearted friend Lennie. They find work in a ranch after being on the run from their old job because Lennie got them in deep trouble, and it seems that in this book he may get in trouble again as George may have not been able to help him.
The book is great because, not only the great use of description, but the characters because Steinbeck shows how children are, in some cases, better people than adults in the way that they do not judge people because they do not see people or things from that point of view (an example being childlike Lennie who has a mental disability though they didn't know that at the time the book is based).
The great thing about that is that it shows some of the other characters' feelings about the situations they are being put in and shows how Steinbeck feels about racism and sexism. Yet another good thing about this book is that it is not long and does not drag on (like other great books as The Great Gatsby and To Kill A Mockingbird) which is great for readers who do not like to read long books and get bored when reading long books.
This shows the greatness of the book because it shows how the book packs that all in like racism, sexism, the Depression, etc.yet in so little time. I encourages you to read Of Mice and Men because it is a truly great book.
