Incident-By Countee Cullen

I really like this poem.  Not for the nefativity of what happened, but for how everyone on this earth can probably relate to this poem.  There have been many experiences in my life where the only thing that I can remember is the negative experience that happened.  It is sad that stuff that cuts us to the bone is the easiest to remember.  The person in the poem lost 6 to 7 months of their life because of someone elses ignorance.  The hardest thing to do in life is to realize that we control how we choose to feel.  We should never give another human that control over us.  It only satisfies their ignorance.
