Debut Albums and Silently Alongside Bruiser
Running.Growing up in the deep south
I would be in my grandparent’s yard runningafter new born puppies.
Going to the cold Smokey Mountains
I would go to
The rushing falls running. On a snow-covered
Christmas day my dad and I were runningthrough the deserted downtown.
Doing laps and laps on frightfully frosty winter nights running. Signing up for a new sport, scared but ready.
Running.Sounds of squirrels, and creeks flowing in trails where
I was silently
Running
Connected myself with nature and who I am deep down inside.

Unseen Shadow
Worry hung over the room like a soupy fog, as silence was the only sound.
A dark, undefined shadow dashed before my eyes.
Carefully, I crept behind the velvet-red chair, hoping to become unseen.
Thick, smoke-scented air began to shake my senses, along with a blistering “BOOM!”
Left…was a dark, defined shadow of dust-like ash.. floating low in dense fog.

The not so “Legally blonde”
Like her “blonde” hair, she bleaches out her past with little, yet loud lies.
Pretty pink on the outside but, blistering black controls inside.
She walks slowly, silently…
Alongside Bruiser, her aggressive black pit-bull, looking for her next victim.
Sneaking behind her ex,
A sly smirk screams on her face as she does the bend-and-shoot. now being the defendant, she is questioned by a pink mirror-like image.

Opening the door, the scent of sugar filled my face with a smile.
Gingerbread men danced throughout Grandma’s kitchen with a smile.
Presents hid beneath the pine-like tree, ready to be sent..
Looking out the frosty window, a familiar ghostly figure glanced at me… with a smile.
Now, everyone was eagerly eating those dancing gingerbread men with a smile.

Cross Country
I can hear the beat of feet hitting the ground.
I can hear roaring voices that irritate some ears.
I can hear fast huffs and puffs from far away.
I can hear all of the good-jobs and

    There have been times in my life where I have partnered or befriended someone for my own benefit while bringing little if anything to the table for the other person. As a result, I am similar with a few characters from Neal Shusterman’s Bruiser. The reasons, while sometimes different, the end result was the same. Someone else ended up being taken advantage of. The main idea to take away from this book, is to realize that taking advantage of others and letting others take advantage of you is a short-term solution with no long-lasting benefits.…

    SOLDIER'S HOME by Ernest Hemingway Krebs went to the war from a Methodist college in Kansas. There is a picture which shows him among his fraternity brothers, all of them wearing exactly the same height and style collar. He enlisted in the Marines in 1917 and did not return to the United States until the second division returned from the Rhine in the summer of 1919. There is a picture which shows him on the Rhone with two German girls and another corporal. Krebs and the corporal look too big for their uniforms. The German girls are not beautiful. The Rhine does not show in the picture. By the time Krebs returned to his home town in Oklahoma the greeting of heroes was over. He came back much too late. The men from the town who had been drafted had all been welcomed elaborately on their return. There had been a great deal of hysteria. Now the reaction had set in. People seemed to think it was rather ridiculous for Krebs to be getting back so late, years after the war was over. At first Krebs, who had been at Belleau Wood, Soissons, the Champagne, St. Mihiel and in the Argonne did not want to talk about the war at all. Later he felt the need to talk but no one wanted to hear about it. His town had heard too many atrocity stories to be thrilled by actualities. Krebs found that to be listened to at all he had to lie and after he had done this twice he, too, had a reaction against the war and against talking about it. A distaste for everything that had happened to him in the war set in because of the lies he had told. All of the times that had been able to make him feel cool and clear inside himself when he thought of them; the times so long back when he had done the one thing, the only thing for a man to do, easily and naturally, when he might have done something else, now lost their cool, valuable quality and then were lost themselves. His lies were quite unimportant lies and consisted in attributing to himself things other men had seen, done or heard of, and stating…

    Out of the Silent Planet

    • 1242 Words

    In the year 1625, Francis Bacon, a famous essayist and poet wrote about the influences of fear on everyday life. He stated, "Men fear death as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other" (Essays Dedication of Death). Clearly, external surroundings affect perceptions of fear as well as human nature in general. Although C.S. Lewis published the novel, Out of the Silent Planet, over three centuries after Bacon wrote his theory on fear, Lewis similarly portrayed external surrounding to manipulate perceptions of fear. From the first chapter of the novel, Lewis revealed fear to be a weakness that leads to ignorance. It was this ignorance that apparently fueled the cycle of corruption and immorality on "The Silent Planet." Using the character Ransom to reveal the affect of memory and morality on fear, C.S. Lewis demonstrates that fear is a quality of the "bent" race (humans), and only by eliminating fear in our lives can the human race become hnau.…

    Light in August is probably Faulkner's most complex and difficult novel. Here he combined numerous themes on a large canvas where many aspects of life are vividly portrayed. The publication of this novel marked the end of Faulkner's greatest creative period — in four years he had published five substantial novels and numerous short stories. Light in August is the culmination of this creative period and is the novel in which Faulkner combines many of his previous themes with newer insights into human nature. In Sartoris, The Sound and the Fury, and As I Lay Dying, Faulkner had examined the relationship of the individual to his family. In his next major novel, Absalom, Absalom!, Faulkner returned to the family as the point of departure for his…

    Kyung-sook feels guilty for both Seuk-ho and her new family because she gets married twice and her roles between two families cannot be harmonious. Discord between her different roles in two families results from traditional Korean marriage culture during the 19th century. According to Professor Han in Sookmyung Women’s University in South Korea, “In July 1477 (8th year of King Sŏngjong), the king summoned 46 of the nation’s most respected loyal subjects to take part in a discussion on the need to prohibit women from remarrying once their spouses had passed away” (121). Even though that regulation toward women does not exist anymore, there is still some negative perceptions on women’s remarriage because of a long history. In Seok-ho’s point of view, Kyung-sook cannot be blameless because she starts a new life by getting remarried to a strange man. Moreover, Kyung-sook cannot be blameless in front of her new husband because she has already been married once before and has a son between her and her first husband. In other words, Kyung-sook is such an innocent sinner to both Seuk-ho and her new husband.…
