    That’s what the notice said. Hmm.. how could a 14 year old be prosecuted? The juvenile court cannot do much for trespassing. I entered it along with my sister‚ who was just ten months older than me. And we thought that there would be no problem. Darkness. The word which symbolizes sadness to many.

    seen them made or heard them made / But at spring mending-time we find them there (lines 9-11)‚ illustrates the point that people become separated without even realizing it because we become so caught up in what is happening in our own lives. The darkness‚ held within the afore mentioned quotation‚ is the feeling of sadness. The fact that we do not take notice of one another creates a place that becomes more and more divided by differences. Likewise‚ the poem Nothing Gold Can Stay seems to represent

    The Darkness of "Greasy Lake" It is almost clear that the story of "Greasy Lake" takes place in the 1960’s‚ with the style of clothing‚ the preference of music and the careless attitudes of the characters that spend the night in the darkness of "Greasy Lake". This was a time when smoking pot‚ drinking beer‚ and hanging out was the cool thing to do. The story of "Greasy Lake" being in the 60’s‚ with the random music of rock n roll‚ reggae and misfit attitudes clearly attributes to Boyles statement

    "In a dark time‚ the eye begins to see‚ . . . " comes from a 1966 poem by Theodore Roethke. I believe it is a dark time as far as our understanding of the world around us and yet I also believe that in some way darkness can enlighten us. To me this quote means that during hardships is when people begin to understand. I disagree with this quote because when a person is in a dark period of their life they often loose the ability to understand thing clearly. Just as in the two plays A Streetcar Named

    __ Blue Velvet is a bizarre neo-noir film that explores raw themes of sadomasochism‚ voyuerism and violence. Lynch skillfully weaves his vision of a “strange world” into the small‚ seemingly unadulterated town of Lumberton‚ unraveling a human darkness that‚ much with the same impulses as the protagonist‚ one takes a guilty pleasure in viewing.

    to describe the different aspects of the house and items that surround him. Joyce sets a dark tone to “Araby” when he uses those words to describe the house in which the boy lives. Joyce’s use of descriptive words for the boys’ school adds to the darkness in which the story takes place. “ North Richmond Street‚ being blind‚ was a quiet street except at the hour when the Christian Brothers’ School set the boys free” (Joyce (326). Joyce uses the word blind to describe the street on which the school
