    In Ode to a Nightingale Keats introduces the reader to his discontent with the void of feeling he is experiencing. In the first line Keats says how his‚ “heart aches” which the reader would interpret as pain; however the second half of the first line he describes‚ “A drowsy numbness”. This tells me that Keats is uncomfortable with the “numbness” he experiences. In the second line Keats says‚ “as though of hemlock I had drunk”. Norton foot notes tell us that hemlock is a poison that acts

    hulk like physiques. No one could have imagined a small‚ lean 5’3 girl like myself be a wrestler. Barely weighing over 100 pounds‚ I struggle with the dirty looks and glares I get. The news spread like wildfire around my gossip-loving-school that there was a girl on the wrestling team. My peers questioned me with disbelief. They inquired with bulging eyes ‚”you’re the girl on the wrestling team?” I picked this poem because It doesn’t say you have to be a tough male with bulging muscles to be a champion

    MICHAEL ARLEN: ODE TO THANKSGIVING It is time‚ at last‚ to speak the truth about Thanksgiving‚ and the truth is this. Thanksgiving is really not such a terrific holiday.

Cranberry jelly in little bowls of extremely doubtful provenance which everyone is required to handle with the greatest of care! Consider the participants‚ the merrymakers: men and women (also children) who have survived

    "Ode to an Orange" by Larry Woiwode took place in the winter of 1940s. It was "the winters of the forties" which I felt was very important in setting the background. It was a time of war‚ rationing of food‚ limited transportation‚ a difficult time to import items from other states and then adjustment from war of peace. Winter did not just represent cold‚ snow‚ wind‚ gray sky‚ limited sunshine‚ but a limiting of the senses. With this in mind it have also been difficult to obtain an orange that would

    Once‚ called away to an unanticipated school conference‚ I began drafting my short noticed speech with a yellow wooden pencil. Unfortunately this graphite loaded‚ eraser-tipped writing spear has become an alienated object as I readily admit my dependence on a new technology of writing. I found that I had become so used to composing virtual prose that I could no longer draft anything coherent directly onto a piece of paper. It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t think of the words‚ but the deliberate physical

Thus‚ terms as menthol and lights‚ second
