An Ode to Video Games
Tapping on your buttons, my brain goes numb. If it’s fighting aliens or running down cats, You, oh video games make me go dumb. If thou breakdown, I shall quoth, “Rats!”

Thus friend when you turn off, I cough. I would not go outside, for it is no lie. You I could enjoy in a trough. For I only want to see you flashing lights.

You video games with your sleek, new design. You, precious one, if thou have a scratch, My brain is off the logical line. Then my new life I can no longer hatch.

All other activities are quite lame, This is an ode to you video games!

Assignment number two
“Rebellious Subjects, enemies of peace, / Profaners of this neighbor-stained steel,--/…If ever you disturb our streets, / Your lives shall pay the forfeit of peace” (I.i. 73-74, 78-79)

While speaking in Act I of William Shakespeare’s tragedy //Romeo and Juliet//, Prince Escalus has just interrupted a major feud between the Montagues and Capulets. He is angered because this is the third time the two families have fought in the streets. He calls the two families “Rebellious subjects” and then he goes on to say that if this fight happens again, “[y]our lives shall pay the forfeit of peace” (I.i. 73-74). His speech foreshadows that in the end of this story, a Capulet and a Montague will die because of the fighting.
