Holes

Title poem

Hurrying up to please the Warden,

Our bodies feel sore and we’re working like mad,  the pain

Making us feel

Like we’re just losin’ our minds for nothin’.

Oh look, some

Eagles are flyin’ over everyone’s heads, the feeling of

Soarin’ out of this hell hole seeming like a brand new heaven.

 

Author's Note

I remember this movie; I loved it. :] And the song just brings back memories (the song Dig It).

If you haven't seen this movie, you wouldn't completely understand (plus, it's a Disney movie).

I'll put the summary up:

When Stanley Yelnats IV is wrongfully convicted of stealing, he is sent to 'Camp Green Lake'. At this camp, the Warden, and her two henchman, Mr. Sir and Dr. Pendanski command the campmates to dig holes after hole after hole.

The movie was based off the book Holes.
