The Poem Of Life By: Marcus Wallace B1 Yesterday… I lost at Call Of Duty, But I won at Armor Games. I took money, But I gave toys. I loved Dora But I hated the Dark. I cried when I was miserable, But I laughed when I was joyful.

Today… I lose at Halo, But I win at Minecraft. I take game accounts, But I give money. I like video games, But I hate Dora. I cry when I was wounded, But I laugh with friends.

Tomorrow… I will lose at tournaments, But I will win at trophies. I will take platinum, But I will give gold. I will love my work, But I will hate my boss. I will cry when lonely, But I will laugh when I’m with kids.

Limerick Marcus B2 There was a man, Who was called Stan. When he stood, On the car hood, He said, “It feels good.”

There was a Boche, At the trench sloshe. When a 5 inch dud, That sent him flat in the mud, He said, “I should have went to trench ‘sud’.”

 * // Russian Invasion of Crimea //**

In our world right now, there is war and strife. Syria is killing itself with civil war, and the Al-Qaeda is fighting with terror tactics. However there is one fighting outbreak that is catching the world’s attention. That is the invasion and subsequent take over of Crimea by Russia. Russia says that they have every right to fold Crimea into the Russian Federation, but previous treaties and agreements say otherwise. People may ask that what treaties don’t allow Russia to take Crimea. Read on to find out.

Russia has more military in Crimea than it is allowed to have. Russia is allowed to only have 25,000 troops, 24 artillery systems, 22 military planes, and 132 armored vehicles. The treaty agreed on friendship, cooperation and partnership between the Russian Federation and Ukraine confirmed this limitation (Signed in 1997). There were mysterious unmarked armed men taking over numerous government and military installations. Russia at first denied this but the soldiers were “armed with modern Russian rifles” a retired Soviet KGB spy said, however it was easy to see these were Russian soldiers. Later on however Vladimir Putin admitted that the little green men (The nickname of the unknown soldiers) to be Russian troops. None of these unmarked Russian troops are from the pre-established Russian military bases so this makes the Russian soldier limit above what is allowed. This has made people around the world furious.

Meanwhile Russia also agreed with the US and the UK on the Budapest Memorandum On Security Assurances. This states that they will not use military force to alter the territorial integrity and political matters in Ukraine. Russia has completely blown this one out of the water by invading Crimea and now occupying it. The United States and the United Kingdom went completely ballistic at this. They imposed harsh sanctions against Russia to retaliate against such unprecedented abuse of military power.

Finally, the United Nations refuses to recognize Crimea as part of Russia. This was proven when the majority of countries voted against the claims of Crimea as part of the Russian Federation. The rest decided to abstain, even China, one of Russia long time allies in the UN decided to abstain. This shows that countries all across the world are nervous of such military attacks that show no logic at all. The countries surrounding Russia are afraid that the same fate might befall on them so the countries requested assistance form NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization). The countries part of NATO has sent in support by the means of food and military assets.

So now this is it, will we stand on the sidelines and watch when such atrocious acts are committed? Or will we stand up and help such countries that desperately need our aid. The choice is yours, whether you stand aside and be remembered as the person who did not even contribute to help. Or you can be remembered as a person who saw through the Russian propaganda and tried his best in contributing to the countries in need. The choice is yours.
