This found poem was created from the story: Button Button by Richard Matheson, the external conflict between Norma and her husband, Arthur. They conflict between whether or not to push the button and murder someone for $50,000. Norma believes that if some random guy they never knew were to die, and they got a profit from it, why not? “What is it’s some old Chinese peasant 10,000 miles away? Some diseased native in Congo? Fifty thousand dollars, a chance to take that trip to Europe, a chance to buy that cottage.” Yet Arthur feels differently, “what’s the difference whom you kill? It’s still murder.” And they have no right to decide who gets to die and who doesn’t. I used these words in my poem because it was the main source of their conflict. The cash on the background of my poster symbolizes the source of their conflict and why this had all happened in the first place. I also added a red background to show their anger and frustration towards each other.
