My name is Brenda Winders, I wrote this poem, I can prove it to anyone who doubts me. The picture, an the name on this video, is not who wrote it.

[@TGJ_FaisalIqbal]

I can’t comment extensively on it. This poem is part of our course book, and as a teacher, my role is to read, explain, and analyze the text. I share my best understanding based on my research and the related aspects.

[@brendawinders9638]

You shouldn't be doing anything with it because it is copy righted to me
