IB Junior English Journal Response #13


“Found” Poem for The Stranger:

He looked flustered - looking all over the place
Peering into the darkness of the entryway
Back and forth - I heard him pacing
They’ll take him away

He started searching the street again
All of a sudden the words came pouring out
I thought of Maman - for some reason
His life had changed now

With a furtive hand - the old man
For the first time
Offered a smile
I always thought it was mine

(Characterizing Salamano)
