    The Other Side of the Hedge After reading the first few paragraphs‚ The Other Side of the Hedge‚ by E. M. Forster‚ seems to be nothing more than a story about a man walking down a long road.

    Last Night The next day‚ I am almost afraid. Love? It was more like dragonflies in the sun‚ 100 degrees at noon‚ the ends of their abdomens stuck together‚ I close my eyes when I remember. I hardly knew myself‚ like something twisting and twisting out of a chrysalis‚ enormous‚ without language‚ all head‚ all shut eyes‚ and the humming like madness‚ the way they writhe away‚ and do not leave‚ back‚ back‚ away‚ back. Did I know you? No kiss‚ no tenderness–more like killing‚ death-grip

Forster pairs his imagery of nature against "objects" like the narrator’s pedometer that seem useless and actually stop functioning after

Often these relationships are positive‚ but they can also be negative. Being rejected

    Gallant’s "The Other Paris" is a marvelous representation of two "love birds" finalizing the decision of marriage "over a tuna-fish salad". A social commentary and an amount of satire over exaggerated to prove a point about society. Disney movie story lines are not a form of reality they are written scripts of fiction.
