.... unstuck in time. A stroke of genius and a slap in the face of this world. Always restless, searching for answers. Impulsive and inspired, writing down his thoughts. Funny stories about Elvis and his followers, the Elvi, or dirty poetry. Painting his visions on sheets that hang from the eaves or painting me with psychedelic designs. It doesn't matter which. All of it makes me want him more. Some things I say to him are like sour notes played too often. I'm out of tune. He always sings along. Our waltz is better than most, I suppose. We know the ste .....

.... from London (World Book Encyclopedia) Sonnets are the most famous of Shakespeare’s works. Sonnets are lyric poems made up of fourteen lines and sound more like a song without musical instruments than a poem. Sonnet 18 is one of the most admired of his collection. It is a beautiful romantic love poem written to compare summer to his love’s beauty. A beautiful piece of imagery is used in lines1-3: “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Thou are more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May:” Shakespeare clearly ables .....

.... a wall is necessary between them “If I could put a notion in his head”. Frost in this poem uses a simple rural activity, that is the mending of a wall, to conjure a much more universal theme that is isolation. The persona ponders at the fact why man can not live without walls, boundaries, limits and particularly self-limitations. “There where it is/ We do not need a wall”. Isolation of the individual links to our desire for barriers and boundaries as a form of separation from other people. We find in “Mending Wall” the desire of a rural farmer to mend a wall .....

.... poets of the ancient world, Sappho was born soon after 630BC. Aristocratic herself, she married a merchant and had a daughter named Cleis (Robinson 24). Her wealth gave her the chance to live however she chose, and she chose to spend her life studying the arts on the isle of Lesbos which was a cultural center in the seventh century BC. Sappho spent a majority of her time here, but she also traveled extensively through Greece (Robinson 35). She spent time in Sicily too, because she was exiled due to certain activities of her family. The residents of Syracuse .....

.... of the ocean. Beowulf is also strong enough to kill the monster Grendel, who has been terrorizing the Danes for twelve years, with his bare hands by ripping off his arm. When Beowulf is fighting Grendel's mother, who is seeking revenge on her son's death, he is able to slay her by slashing the monster's neck with a Giant's sword that can only be lifted by a person as strong as Beowulf. When he chops off her head, he carries it from the ocean with ease, but it takes four men to lift and carry it back to Herot mead-hall. This strength is a key trait of Beowulf's .....

.... what he is saying. Drying up like a raisin in the sun would suggest losing hope after trying so hard. Another example Langston used was the festering of a sore. Of course, it is painful to get a sore. Such an act or thought could equate to the struggle the blacks in-lets say the sixties went through during all those marches across the country. The pain and suffering they endured trying to become a part of the so-called "American dream". In many ways those efforts were null and void because we still are not equal, racial discrimination still exists. Black .....

.... it is the "foster-child of silence and slow time," the urn exists in time because it is only throughout time and its events that we can even begin to understand the scenes it presents in their relation to our own experience. "The Sylvan historian, describes the panels on the urn that present ancient woodland scenes, they probably tell the history of a past way of life. In the second and third stanzas Keats is talking about the music that is playing to the spirits, because he says "it's sweeter unheard." Also, that is must be young and very rich in love, because .....
