    “Danny by comparison, was six feet tall and could jump reasonable well-for a white boy” (Feinstein 3). I really dislike this idea because it shows racism, the story is presenting a negative feeling. The feeling that I feel is that only black people are good at basketball and white people are not. In the world,…

    Take a minute to imagine “Men looking like they had been/attacked repeatedly by a succession /of wild animals,” “never/ ending blasted field of corpses,” and “throats half gone, /eyes bleeding, raw meat heaped/ in piles.” These are the vividly, grotesque images Edward Mayes describes to readers in his poem, “University of Iowa Hospital, 1976.” Before even reading the poem, the title gave me a preconceived idea of what the poem might be about. “University of Iowa Hospital, 1976” describes what an extreme version of what I expected the poem to be about. The images I described above are just some of the horrifying scenes described by Mayes. This poem spoke to me about the pain and suffering patients endure while staying in a hospital (whether it be a mental hospital or a medical hospital) and the horrific images the staff see daily. Mayes uses several types of imagery and literary tropes in his poem to give readers an intense visual sensation as they read his poem. The visuals Mayes placed in my own mind while I read this poem were intensely real and stuck with me long after I studied the poem.…

    The writer, Phillis Wheatley, uses many descriptive details about the natural world in her poem. She compares the sun setting and the new evening with many rural details. For example, in line two, she says: "The pealing thunder shook the heav'nly plain;" She is referring to the empty plains of a rural area. I also wondered how the poem would sound if she chose to praise the evening using details of an urban setting.…

    However, to say that the stereotypes of Asians are completely wrong would be a blatant overstatement. Stereotypes exist for a reason. As psychologist Saul McLeod explains, “The use of stereotypes is a major way in which we simplify our social world; since they reduce the amount of processing (i.e. thinking) we have to do when we meet a new person” (MacLeod). Close examination of the average Asian American’s values reveal Confucian influences. A 1999 study by psychologists Brian Kim, Donald Atkisnon, and Peggy Yan from University of California, Santa Barbara, identified 14 Asian values. While the researchers stated that, “We must recognize that Asian Americans are comprised of an extremely diverse group and that significant differences within Asian ethnic groups do exist,” they found that traditional Asians tended to emphasize these values: collectivism, maintenance of interpersonal harmony, reciprocity,…

    As you begin to pay attention to your own stories and what they say about you, you will enter into the exciting process of becoming, as you should be, the author of your own life, the creator of your own possibilities. The theme of William Shakespeare sonnet # 18 “Shall I Compare Thee to a summer’s day” is eternal love. Shakespeare compares his lover to summer, the most beautiful season of the year. However summer beauty cannot exist all year long but his love for her and her beauty will always exist. The theme of Claude McKay sonnet “The Harlem Dancer” is that being a prostitute and stripper doesn’t mean you have to act like one, it doesn’t determine you’re real self. In “The Harlem Dancer” poet Claude McKay uses imagery, diction, and metaphor to more effectively to express that just because you have a job that really isn’t accepted in society doesn’t mean you have to fit into the characteristics that the job offer.…

    “Melancholy inside families” by Pablo Neruda is poem that is strong in visual appetite and conveys emotions such as gloominess and fear through those visuals. I believe the images that have been brought to the reader’s mind are not imaginary but tales of real life experiences such as natural disaster, poverty, death and misery. The poem seems it’s about a town sunken in floods, when it says “deserted room through which a river passes/dragging along the stones”. It also says “I arrive full of mud and death” and “corpses are sleeping” which shows significant amount of deaths that would occur during a natural disaster. Also, emotions such as fear and sadness have been conveyed through lines such as “menacing gestures”, “a terrifying deserted dining room” and “I am sad”. “Melancholy inside families” is a visual experience in the form of words, depicting a disaster struck environment. Furthermore, it can be imagined that the 1st person narration is coming from some form of matter other than humans.…

    Pain Poem

    • 416 Words

    Pain, right at this moment honestly I can’t think of anything that makes me feel pain. I don’t think I have been through the deep pain that people can’t get rid of, but there is one thing that makes me feel pain and that is when see others in pain and to see this beautiful world suffering with so many kinds of things. So basically based on this poem I wrote about what pain I faced and what I think I can do and what others can do to give solutions for this pain. This is a very short summary of the poem I wrote……In today’s world, It has changed so badly and it’s obvious. An innocent child will receive things that the world is doing and it will ruin their innocent mind. Life will get harder and harder and it is so dark and tough to achieve what you want to achieve, you fail so many times and it will just make you give up easily. If your life is so dark by doing so many bad things, do more good things and it definitely will cover up all the bad things and it will also cover up all the bad memories that you had. And so now, you will definitely find your life different and continue moving forward in your life. One person definitely can’t light up the whole world; we can’t be so selfish and wait for others to be the light of the world and of other…

    “Love Poem,” written by John Frederick illustrates true love in a realistic way. He expresses to the reader that there is more to love that what is usually written about in poems. To get this theme across, he plays with the reader’s expectations about what he is going to read. The title gives the reader the assumption that this poem is about a beautiful sonnet to an unattainable love. The reader envisions the same lofty depiction of a beloved woman he has heard in numerous traditional poems.…

    The poet extends her friendly advice to women to understand what is meant by ‘nice’ what it means when men are ‘nice’ to you. When he is ‘nice’, friendly and pleasant to you, make sure that he is sincere and trustworthy and not because he has ulterior motive, that is he wants something from you in return. The poet further comments that love may be a gamble as suggested in ‘dice’, you take your chances…
