One of the main contributing factors to the outbreak of the American Revolution was the problem of taxation without representation. Unlike the people living in various parts of England, American colonists did not have their own representatives in the British Parliament. This meant that the Parliament could essentially make any decision they chose in regards to the colonies without the consent of the colonists themselves. The Parliament naturally used this to their advantage, mainly by passing acts that increased taxes on many different goods the colonists had to import from England. Eventually, the colonists grew enraged over Parliament's abusive tactics and the ridiculously high taxes they imposed and the revolution was born. Which BESTS supports the claim that Parliament abused the colonies? A) England was in desperate need of funds to keep its sprawling empire intact. B) Many tax acts were later repealed to quell the colonists' growing discontent. C) Problems with the judicial system also contributed to the revolutionary movement. D) High taxes on tea were levied simply to pay for England's military expenses.

Is this a good POEM?
Guilt
Are you done?;hiding won't fix it now. It's too late for that sh*t. Pretending that things are fine is wrong, especially when you know they aren't.

Your hands become slick with sweat just thinking about it. Funny huh?, never woulda thought it so, not until I came back. Be honest, did you miss me? Didn't think so. Have you noticed it?, the pain. Soon you'll see the guilt is eating at you, completely and utterly destroying you. Won't take too long till it is too late, too bad you can't escape...
