The Fear Factor by Sara Holbrook (The Poetry Friday Anthology for Middle School, 2013)

I know you.
You.
Courage,
how you ask for what is mine.
How you swell in my chest,
speak up, straighten my spine,
and whisper in my ear,
Okay, you say.
Okay.
It’s going to be okay.
More than
the shoe, the step,
the doorknob turn.
More than a precipice.
A fall.
A burn.
I fear you will abandon me,
evaporate
and not return.
But every time,
when faced with
choice or change
it is your voice that
cuts through clouds of gray.

underline all the literary device: alliteration, personification, rhyme, repitition and magic of three.

either a donut or a sphere or a pancake or a flat sphere. it depends on where the vertical line is.

if the line goes through the center of the circle and is perpendicular to a diameter containing the center, then you get a flat circle.

if the line and the diameter of a the circle meet in the center of the diameter and at an angle, you get a pancake.

if the line is on the circumference of the circle and is at right angles   to the circle you get a ring.

if the line contains the diameter, you get a sphere.

the the line is parallel to the diameter and touches the circumference, you get a donut.

depends on your school
