Review of Slip of the Tongue


This piece was a phenominal gateway into the diverse thought process of young people and their attractions to each other. Not only that but the true attraction they have for themselves. It calls to the forefront just how common it is for the exterior to be depicted in such a way to one person that can offend and even undermine another's perception of themselves. Young people have begun to own their individuality and their roots. We've begun to see things for what they really are and make the choice to either identify and remove ourselves from certain definitions.Adriel's piece is sweet and simple yet his poem addresses so much.
