b. Write a poem on the Tom Robinson Trial / life in Maycomb/ any other incident.
Maycomb, Maycomb
The tired old town
Struck by Depression
Stuck with racism
Some people nice
Some people bad
Majority with racism
Few with equallity
Life in Maycomb
is full of discrimination
and inequality
Racial segregation
Racial discrimination
The Blacks with no rights
The Whites who dominate
Follow convention
Be racist
and you are safe
Differ convention
Be the miniority
and get mocked
But the courageous miniority
Are always brave
Stick to their virtues
and moral values
Believe in equality for all
And hence
Maycomb is in this state today
Town torn with racial segregation
Society divided by Whites and Blacks
People seperated by skin colour
Morals ripped apart by discrimination
This must end
Mindsets must change
People must change
Untill this happens
Maycomb will stay the same
The tired old town
