Depressed Kids Shocked as Happy Poem Gets in Aura

Depressed and unhappy students at WHS were shocked and dismayed yesterday upon receiving the latest issue of "Aura," the literary magazine. Known for it's frequent covering of topics such as self-mutilation, suicide, break-ups, pain and suffering, this issue of Aura was radically different from previous ones in that it contained a relatively happy poem, entitled "Think Positive Thoughts." "WTF where they thinking?" one typical depressed student commented. "They put in all this happy crap about thinking positively about life instead of my poem, 'Your suffering ends in death.' It's not like people read Aura to be happy anyway." Other students echoed this refrain. Said another, "I just broke up with my girlfriend, my band isn't popular, and I'm contemplating suicide. This happy kid's probably some rich preppy kid with a bright future. He just doesn't deserve to be mentioned in Aura."
On the other hand, teachers, students, and a broad spectrum of normal people expressed enthusiasm over the change. As one teacher said, "It's not like it's impossible for happy people to write." Some Aura members, speaking on a condition of anonymity, said that they "never really liked unhappy poems anyway."
