    Hidden Soul Entry 1‚ A DARK PRISON There was darkness seeping from the corners like an ocean bursting from a dam. Light filled the passageway for a brief moment before being engulfed by the darkness. It was pulled back into sickly darkness that oddly behaved like a strange thick black oil‚ goop or tar. The darkness was very slowly moving down the corridor‚ but quickened its pace if a ray of light escaped. The darkness had hardened way far back when it started turning into it’s strange substance

    Darkness is usually associated with fear or the unknown. As children‚ we are afraid of the unknown under our bed that darkness brings‚ which‚ in turn‚ makes our imaginations run wild‚ creating monsters‚ ghosts‚ and of course‚ the occasional boogeyman. Even as adults‚ we still have an antipathy to drive at night or go walking alone in the darkness.

Through the window I see no star: Something more near Though deeper within darkness Is entering the loneliness: The presence the poet has sensed is nearer than the stars‚ as it is right there in his own mind. Yet that makes it no clearer‚ only deeper within darkness as the stars shed no light on it. But

    For this assignment about motif analysis‚ I chose the references to darkness and light. This motif significantly establishes the development of the characters in Fahrenheit 451.

    It heralds the future of happiness‚ felicity in the happy ending‚ optimistic romance as the subplot. When Susan realizes that her brother has been freed she can hardly believe it (p55 l 57/61).
