This Poem Created by Mohamed Hassan was the best out of them in my opinion because he got a point through and his words and speech were clear and actions were meaningful, he told us that he was dangerous and that he is terror and is the face of evil and described why he is dangerous and I thought that the ways he described it gave it more of a meaning and purpose of why he says he is dangerous.

My First favourite piece or part in this poem was " I'm emotionless, I do not fear, I do not grieve, I do not love, I do not forgive, I am homogeneous, ungodly, unmoving and desiring and deserving of your sympathy" This Speech was one of my favourites because he explains why and how he is dangerous and shows the reason why What I thought about this text as he is dangerous because he fears nobody and does not forgive and shows no emotion. This speech shows pure emotion during the time he says all of it as well he shows not only with words but with actions. You can find this speech at 00.45 on the video.

My Other Favourite Piece in the poem was "
I am dangerous kill me before I self destruct, I'm a time bomb, I am a bomb I am terrible and I'm dangerous" This was another cool part because he related himself to a bomb and all bombs do is destroy and I think that his point that he is trying to get across is that he shows signs of demolitions. I like how he described himself as self-destructing. Altogether I think he cannot control him being dangerous but he is naturally dangerous because he warns us and says " Kill me before I self destruct" In my opinion, this means he doesn't want to try and hurt people but he cannot control himself and his dangerous behaviour. 

This is an interesting poem and the actions and his emotions make the poem into the next level. The Type of poems I personally like is the poems that have actions and gets a literal point through and is catchy otherwise they don't seem to be interesting to watch without a tune. 

In my perspective on this is that people look at him and think he's dangerous and he describes what people actually say and think about him, This Poem I think made him seem like he is dangerous because of how people looked, treated and thought about him. I think he described the way the world saw him when actually he is describing how he feels.
