In Michael Waters’ poem‚ “The Mystery of the Caves”‚ two stories are told: one of a boy lost in a cave‚ and one of the narrator’s household of domestic violence.

Water is known the world over as a fount in which the foundations of life are built upon. It symbolizes freedom. It symbolizes rebirth. It symbolizes purity. Yet‚ the actuality of water in today’s world does not meet those same criteria. Exploited‚ polluted‚ and dammed are often words that come to mind when I look at how the human race manages their water. It is through ironies like this‚ which show the true extent of damage the Earth faces. Brenda Hillman in her work Practical Water echoes this

The Michael McFee poem‚ “In Media Res‚” seems to comment on detrimental aspects of marriage in relation to the human condition. The title itself hints at the author’s claim and how it relates to the scene depicted by McFee.

“The Allegory of the Cave” The Allegory of the Cave can be broken down in many ways. It basically states that people are chained to the wall in a cave and they have nothing to look at but the shadows of one another.

I think the main point of this story is the author trying to give us an example of how or the
