The first dance, “meet me in the temple”, began with two females walking towards each other to the center of the stage with a direct pathway and a heavy intention. One of the females began dancing with a good sense of control and staying grounded. This female set the phrase for the rest of this piece. This phrase consisted of an angulation of the spine traveling backwards with arms out in front of the body with palms facing forward. She then moved into a deep second plié with arms continuing to stay in front of the body as if she was asking for forgiveness from the other female.…

Language, in itself, is exceptionally powerful. Language has the power to stop wars, to solve conflicts; however, perhaps one of the most important forces of language is the power to create emotion, to create meaning. The words an author elects to use can effectively impact one’s own reality. In the event that language is effectively utilized, it can evoke deep emotion from the reader and induce extensive thought in order to connect the words to the meaning. An author can manipulate language to convey their message by their choice of diction throughout a passage or by further applying various forms of figurative language to create imagery.…
Elie Wiesel once said-” Wherever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must-at that the moment-become the center of the universe”.I think that nobody has the right to judge anyone by their race and specially by their religion.Even though people don’t see that nobody can never be so perfect in religion or in anything else.…
At the Gym, written by Mark Doty; has no relation with being at the gym at all; metaphorically speaking it pertains to attending church. The narrative provided is from the author's observation of other people in the church.

While more positive emotions of relief and hope are set forth; leading one to happiness. Many hidden religious aspects contained throughout the poem are brought to light.…

There are many essentials to surviving in life. After the basic necessities such as water, food, intimacy, and shelter are met, finding your personal identity is the most significant to the dynamics of life. Personal identity can be defined as the distinguishing character by which an individual is infinitively recognizable or known. Personal identity makes a person who he or she is to be defined as. According to Greek philosopher Aristotle, identity is a concept that refers to the aspect of existence; therefore, the aspect of existence is something in particular, with specific characteristics. Finding who we truly are can aid in loving, identifying, and accepting ourselves. Notary short stories, “What You Pawn I Will Redeem” by Sherman Alexie, “Hollow” by Breece D'J Pancake, and “Until Gwen” by Dennis Lehane are great exemplifications of how the struggle with identity hurt or harm the develop of an individual’s character.…
