The black out/found poem one has created is based on the story titled my side of the story by Adam Bagdasarian. It evloves both internal and external conflicts throughout the story. Furthermore, in order to create this found poem one has used microsoft word for paragraph and Canva for artwork and found poem.

On page 1 of the story there are textual evidence to support external conflict of human versus human. At the beginning of the story, it starts with stating the relationship between his brothers. At the beginning on the poem, the word/phrase selections were entire roll of tape stuck on my head. Furthermore, on page1, paragraph 3, word/phrase selections for the poem were, stuffed and tied me he was fourteen could bedevil at will. According to this it can be inferred that the protagonist was habitually harassed/badeviled by his older brother skip. Since the protagonist stated two cases of harassment that happened both in the past and present. Therefore, it can be shown that there is an external conflict between the protagonist and his brother skip.

From page 2~5 of the story the textual evidence supports both external conflict of Human versus Human and internal conflict of Human versus belief. These conflicts are closely related to each other since the internal conflict is the side effect of the external conflict. Firstly, external conflict is protagonist vs father which can be inferred through word/phrase selections are from page 2, paragraph 12 and were utilized for the found poem. My father, his job, to guide us, self-reliance, not kind of man on would knowingly burst on. These phrases and words on the poem are all stating/describing one person which is protagonist’s father. By this one was able to infer that the father is not a type of person who stands out for someone in certain situation in this case the problem/fight between protagonist and his brother skip which is father’s characteristics.

Furthermore, the word/phrase selections on page 3 in the story and in the poem were, what the hell are you doing? I knew, that, was not enough to warrant my wild. You came running in here without knocking, you didn’t care. I wanted to explain, this been going on for years. Word/phrase selections on page 4 and utilized in the poem, “Here’s what we do with Scotch tape!”, he pulled the whole wad off my head, “Are you ever going to come in here without knocking again? “All this evidence is crucial to explain the conflict. It was mentioned before that the father was kind of person who has value of self-reliance and does not stand out for problems occurred between protagonist and his brother. And this is the dialogues between him and his father after the protagonist trying to tell his mother about the situation, but he accidently went to his father’s room. The extreme madness has been shown on these dialogues and at the end the protagonist was pulled out by force. Therefore, these dialogues clearly define the external conflict between the protagonist and his father.

Lastly, the main conflict of the story. The internal conflict of the protagonist’s belief on justice and his father’s belief of justice. On the last page of the story and the last part of the poem states the feeling of the protagonist after the external conflict with his father. “I wondered, was the justice in that? When I burst into mother’s room, entered world of justice, startling one’s father were serious crimes. I understood. I didn’t understand about why my brother who had started the whole thing by putting scotch tape on my head. I went over to his trophy shelf picked trophies wrested gold-plated. Therefore, because of this one was able to infer that the protagonist is having internal conflict of himself believing that his brother should be punished as well while father did not punish his brother. Moreover, the protagonist decides to punish his brother by himself by wresting his brother’s trophy. But this is really disappointing in one’s opinion. Since one felt that the protagonist is not realizing anything and is still in endless cycle of him and his brother revenging each other. Which was also mentioned in page 2, I did something by accident, my brother did something back, and I did something back, and on and on until it was impossible to tell who was at fault. Therefore, one thinks that it would be better if there was an element of internal growth that be evolved through storyline.

The artwork of the poetry: The artwork what one created contains meaning in every color choice and the objects are symbols that represent the story. Firstly, the bright green color represents the protagonist which is the one who gets bad eviled by his brother. Because bright color reminds kindness, joy. Furthermore, the tape above protagonist is the symbol of harassment he got. Moreover, the trophy what the protagonist is holding is the symbol of his belief on justice and revenge. Lastly, the dark color creature represents the brother/skip. In the story he was described as an evil creature who bullies his brother. Therefore, one chose dark color, which is the symbol of evil, madness, bad emotions.
