Multifaceted

The first man arrives, the title “Sith” in place
To protect himself from himself
The things he thinks, the doubt he feels

The other man arrives, the title “Jedi” in place
To protect himself from himself
The things he thinks, the doubt he feels

Some people believe themselves fully evil
Some people believe themselves completely good
Then they change and learn
There was more to themselves
Than they ever realized

So many people are told to have one opinion
Be one person, do one thing
What if we are all more, so much more than one-sided
What if we are all
Multifaceted

Not always evil
Not always good
Sometimes both

Not always right
Not always wrong
Sometimes both

Not always Sith
Not always Jedi
Sometimes both

Not always what others see us to be
Sometimes more than anyone could ever understand


Chaos           Hope
Greed      Wisdom
Hate        Altruism
Darkness      Light
Revan
Your fate is yours

  3. I like how this poem flows, very organized. I also like that you used media that is pretty familiar to everyone. The message gets more clear as to what the message is as the poem goes on.

  4. I really liked your performance of this poem, the repetition, and the Star Wars connection. Also, that we as people have different faces/sides to ourselves.
