The Devouring
He sat, excited as a fat kid in a candy store, anxiously awaiting his anticipated arrival to the great dead sea of salt swallowing sea-serpents. The soaring sky-swan swam slowly to the surface. He descended down the delta cargo-bird. The young lad loved landing at the lake to visit his kin-folk, but fate had a mighty miracle in store for the sly son of Dennis.
The rigorous trek along the speed-street finally brought Devon Dennison to his destination of the isolate island of Cliftonia. Upon his arrival many of his flamboyant faithful family freely fattened his ego with cheers of joy. But the travelers second cousin twice removed, most excited of all, for he cherished the great Devon whole heartedly having heaping hunger for his happiness. Ty O’Relish needs not to say a word for his eyes spoke a sweet song of feast and slumber upon Prince Ty’s hall. Devon thought in his head, “For my dear friend Ty O’Relish is butter to my buns but forsake me not, I do not like running through a field of daisies as a schoolboy and school girl with him.” The wrath of his mother dearest was upon him and she silently swore sour sleeping to sunrise and Satan shouted superbly for he won the war between Devon going or not, and from there was the start of his woes.
He was but an ant on an anthill, the young Ty was a giant grasping a magnifying glass. The horrific news of having to stay over at his cousins was just the start, horrendous information also ensued. He was forced to feed the wingless-Pegasus’ nutrients as the sun red with rage rightfully rose ready to ravish. Reluctantly the son of Dennis set out on his travels for Prince Ty lived in Daytonshire, a five days walk from Cliftonia.
They arrived but this time he was as excited as a flamer in a nude bar. King Devon and Tyrel, both young, did what all other kids would do to have fun. They played Xbox for hours, they jumped on the tramp outside, and then they beat up his little brothers. Needless to say Devon was

    “Slaveship,” by Lucille Clifton, is a free verse poem from the perspective of slaves that the white men capture and trade in the slave trade, forcing them to travel on the Middle Passage. Ironically, the ships bear the names of religious symbols and figures such as Jesus, Angel of God, and Grace of God (lines 14-15) even though the act of slavery is one of the most sinful systems in the eyes of these slaves and in the eyes of all decent human beings.…

    If Tomorrow Never Comes If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly, and pray the Lord your soul to keep. If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss, and call you back for just one more. If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would tape each word and action, and play them back throughout my days If I knew it would be the last time, I would spare an extra minute or two, To stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming you know I do.…

    He tells the reader that there are many characteristics that are shared between this story and the typical hero’s journey. That being the “Call to Adventure” where she drops the ball, the “Herald” arriving, which is the frog, and finally “The World Navel” which represents the subconscious. “Refusal of the Call” is what typically happens if the hero hears the call but does not answer it. The hero ends up imprisoned either physically or psychologically. He backs that up with the story of a nymph who ends up turned into a flower (physically imprisoned) and King Minos who feared everything around him (psychologically imprisoned). Campbell says that this just delays the hero until they are ready to answer the call. “Supernatural Aid” is the figure who appears once the hero answers the call. Campbell adds three points of analysis in a different aspect then he usually does: the first is that he included the fairy tales, not to devalue them but to show how influential they are, the second is in the story of the Arab prince where he writes in great length the details for the long myth, the third is shown in how the Hero’s Journey is in different cultures. “The Crossing of the First Threshold" is the first time the hero goes into a new land physically and mentally but it is blocked by a Guardian which the hero must overcome. “The Belly of the Whale" is where the hero is symbolically or physically swallowed and…

    The two sonnets “One Day I Wrote Her Name” written by Edmund Spencer and “Sonnet 63” written by William Shakespeare both instill a figurative idea of immortality throughout the course of time long after the writers have passed on. Shakespeare plants his beauty within the lines of the poem after his lover’s physical beauty deteriorates with time. Spencer, however, keeps the memory and love for a woman. Although both poems are about two different subjects, the main theme that connects them is that they immortalize two non-physical ideas. The hope of every writer is to have their work famous and studied long after their death. Not only have these two poets immortalized their poetry, but they also succeeded in forever remembering beauty and love.…
