Mundelein High School - Voices Magazine - 2020
This magazine is the culmination of hundreds of submissions from the students of Mundelein High School. Our editing staff spent the entire year choosing pieces to be published. Normally, we would also be publishing some of our school's phenomenal artwork as well, but due to the COVID-19 closure, we were not able to gather the artwork to vote on.

The Universe Said to a Man
Gareth Fullin
You tell me you exist, but you have
Shown no proof of the fact.
As I see, you exist just as much as a
Drop of water in the ocean.
One of many, many as one.
Humanity.
You are the ripple you make.
Make a wave.
Change people.
Turn your water into
A tumultuous sea, then
Look unto me and say you exist.
An existence that brings no change
Is no existence, but merely a presence.
Just as a man looks to the sea,
Expecting to bring forth a change in the tides,
The wind, the air;
You cannot look absently into the eye of life
And expect great change.
You are a machine that creates change.
I am simply here for supervision.
Create change amongst yourselves.
And when your sea calms
When the waves you created start to ebb,
Take a rest and admire how far your current
Has brought you,
And cherish the change you’ve created.
