Poem

Who amI?

I am the wars to end all wars
I am 70 million casualties
I am peace treatys
I am new technologies
I am Eastern and Western fronts
I am the Alliance and the Central powers
I am the assassination of duke Ferdinand
I am the unstable nations left after the war
I am broken alliances
I am trench warfare
I am no mans land
I am economic imperialism
I am balance of power
I am barbed wire
I am terrible conditions
I am lost battles
I am disease and plague
I am 20 million civilions and soldiers killed-
I AM… World War I

Garrett, I really liked your poem. The first thing I noticed though, was the title. It is "Who am I" not "Who amI" that is a small mistake and understandable. I thought this poem was really effective because it literally tells all about the war in a small and short way that makes sense to people. You have a lot of repetition and it is effective in your poem. Good job Garrett :D

Hi Garrett,
I liked your poem, like Sophia said, because its really descriptive and has everything we learned about the war in it. Good job
