Unaware!

I feel so alone, so out of place.  I tend to like being alone, but more as my choice. I see little birds fluttering high in the trees, wondering if this is typical of their lives.  Are they constantly moving locations that they call home?  Is their normal my fear?  I have so many questions because of the crazy, isolated conditions I have been placed in.  In the meantime, I will continue to sit inside this hollow, watching nature do its thing.  I wonder if I'll see any humans today?  Maybe tomorrow people will start searching for me.


The fight!


 


Well, I'm in the arena surrounded by others that were shosen at the reaping.  It is a fight to the death.  Everyone around me is out to kill me.  The arena screams to us to win and bring wealth to our district.  The weapons around the cornocopia also symbolize the evil that surrounds me - I am in a war with myself and the others.  Will I survive the conditions?  Will I survive the anger and determination of the others?  Only time will tell.

Our society is crumbling!

Lately, I just feel like the earth is crumbling around me.  The constant fear of not having enough food.  The fear of the reaping and the yearly choosing of all of us to go into battle!  I feel like there is no future - nothing to live for.  I year for a normal life, a normal relationship, a different world.  I want to wake up one day and be in a different place...one that is safe from all of these evils.
