Today in Mrs. Siciliano 7th + 8th grade class, we looked at Melissa Lozada-Oliva’s poem, “Like Totally Whatever.” We learned about tone of voice, and the power of using it in poetry, particularly in reclaiming our own personal power.

Why emotions can change how I act
When I’m playing sports I’m not usually aggressive
But if someone is pushing me and being aggressive I
get angry and then I start being aggressive and
pushing a lot, usually it turns out fine but
sometimes it leads to bother me or the other
person getting hurt. I try to control my anger
but sometimes I can’t control it but that’s okay
everyone gets angry sometimes.
