Humans
Humans are beautiful, but we're not invincible, especially to our demons.
Human are beautiful,
But humans are not invincible.
Humans are weak,
But humans are unique.
I am not a marionette:
Why do some try to control my silhouette?
I am not a toy:
Why do some try to take my joy?
I am not a mistake:
Why do some try to make me ache?
Can I run?
Or have they won?
(You know we're already done!)
They think of me as a fool,
Should I follow by their rule?
(You can't.)
They think I'm not enough,
Should I act like I'm tough?
(Do I need to chant?)
I am a fighter,
Hoping to make this world brighter.
(Give up.)
I am a work of art,
Painting my own heart.
(Shut up.)
I am a lover,
Just trying to have some cover.
(Your time is up.)
"Human are beautiful,
But humans are not invincible.
Humans are weak,
But humans are unique."
With my last breath,
I knew it was my time--death.

Instructions Included Challenge Winners
For the Instructions Included challenge, we asked writers to tell a story through instructions and to trust the form to carry what could not be said outright. Across the top entries, that trust paid off in many different ways.
