I come from a place where you see the police everyday.
I come from a place of integregation and racism.
I come from a place where you see women getting abused.
I come from a place where money matters.
I come from a place where people don’t care about your life.
I come from a place where sports is everything.
I come from a place where you couldn’t leave.
I come from a place where you knew your house would get robbed.
I come from a place called DETROIT
I come from the real murder capital.
I come from strictness.
I come from a rich family.
I come from a place of happiness.

I come from a bad place.
I come from a place where life matters but people doesn’t take care of it.

  Sensory details was the poetic device I used because I saw that if I were to use the different devices it would be harder for me so I decide to use the one that I thought would be the most significant one and I was able to use the most detail in my poem.
   Literary was the strategy that I decide to use because it was they “I come from” phrase that I decide to continue to use even though it was apart of a classroom assignment and it was not that hard so that’s why I decided to use that device.
