Poem Analysis: Nascent Falls
Nascent Falls

When life brings hostility to the writer, people grow bereaved of his true manners and the air proves unfit to breathe; this friend recalls his killers. Hence, their slithering hands defame this man who presented them with verses which interspersed their natal road.

The children of a fake reverie embark on a way which a sinister lie laid; their roots sought their eternal burying soil. And, they call to their minds the smoke of a clandestine and malevolent cloud, which erased from memory their first besetting

    I love fall. I can imagine the sounds of leaves crunching underneath my boots, the smells of food being taken out on Thanksgiving, the tastes of a nice cup of apple cider, the sights of spooky decorations and bright pumpkins on houses, and the feeling of crisp autumn air blowing across my face. I love to watch the leaves turn red, orange, and yellow and flutter down to the fresh green grass, like warm colors of paint covering a bright green canvas. I always look forward to fall weather, and I also always look forward to the beautiful fall scenery. Because of the nice fall weather, I get to take more walks in my neighborhood and I also get to say hi to my neighbors. Even if my birthday is in the spring, I still love fall the most. Thinking…

    For centuries, stories have been told amongst people all around the world. As time went on, people have searched for ways to help better memorize these stories. Stories were often written down by those who could write, which at the time was a small percent of people in the world. For those that couldn't write, they had no choice but to pass stories on verbally. These people soon realized that over time, stories are not always told properly, or are purposely changed. Stories told by song are not only kept the same, but they are also easier to remember. For example, during slavery, slaves depended on songs to lead them to freedom. One song was "Follow the Drinkin' Gourd." This song gave specific instructions on how to follow the stars, evade…

    Death causes the Bundren family to deal with change. Each character selects a unique way to cope with the family’s loss. By coping, the characters satisfy personal motives while simultaneously moving on with their lives. Coping mechanisms differ in the character’s emotional connection or “closeness” with death. Ranging from a strong emotional relationship to complete separation and dissociation, the “close” spectrum charts a character’s effectiveness in coping with death. As Faulkner addresses the idea of closeness he tests the constraints of emotional connection. Can the emotional connection become too “close,” enough to drive someone to the brink of insanity?

    Life is not only stranger than fiction, but frequently also more tragic than any tragedy ever conceived by the most fervid imagination. Often in these tragedies of life there is not one drop of blood to make us shudder, nor a single event to compel the tears into the eye. A man endowed with an intellect far above the average, impelled by a high-soaring ambition, untainted by any petty or ignoble passion, and guided by a character of sterling firmness and more than common purity, yet, with fatal illusion, devoting all…

    “Society does not consist of individuals but expresses the sum of interrelations , the relations within which these individuals stand” by Karl Marx. The poem “Pull the Next One Up” by Marc Smith expresses that same quote with the reader as a mountain climber reaching the top of a mountain roped together with countless others. Through many elemental forms he creates the sensation of an accomplishment shared with everyone else climbing the mountain. Representing the mountain's and rope as the big symbols in the piece Marc Smith understates the struggles of the world with our society. Incorporating all of these layers of the poem, the overall point being made is that our accomplishments will not flourish with our society when carried out in vain.…

    I sneak through the forest watching as the children creep by, I wait for the moment to spring the trap. I hear them whispering to each other as they travel through the dark woods. The dark woods have been my home since the beginning of time, the trees are gnarled, the bark darker than night. As I stalk the children the moss clings to me whispering for me to join it."Soon others will be joining you" I whisper to it. The children have now gotten to the point of enactment it's now or never. As I come out of the trees the children gasp and then look nervously around to see if there is a chance escape. As I walk toward them they I start to hear what they are saying. I hear my name whispered in panicked voices as they…
