Outline and evaluate feminist views of relationships between men and women Relationships between men and women in postmodern Britain have come a long way from the days when marriage was nothing but a consensus between man and father.

The poem‚ "The Fish Are All Sick" by Anne Stevenson‚ speaks a lot about the relationship between humans and nature‚ specifically the marine ecosystem‚ in the world today. Looking closely at the title of the poem‚ it seems that the poem is fictional - we usually hear fishes getting sick in fictional literary pieces.

The poems “Fog” by Carl Sandburg and the “The Sick Rose” by William Blake have many similarities and differences. Both the poems use animals and bad weather in their content. “Fog” uses a cat and the fog while in the “The Sick Rose” there is a worm and a storm. The poets use the bad weather to create a sense of unhappiness to the reader as the bad weather stops normal events from happening. For example the fog blocks the sun and makes everything seem hazy and the storm destroys plants and does damage

guess it’s just to say something that could possibly have meaning to others. I’m so sick and tired of our world having wrong things in it‚ with no one to help or try and fix them.
