I chose this song for Friendship because LJS and Jim had a close-ish friendship near the beginning of the book. “I stand by you through thick and thin.” (Stevenson 159) “”I says to myself: You stand by Hawkins, and Hawkins’ll stand by you.” “All the crew respected and obeyed him. He was unwearily kind, and always glad to see me in the galley.”(55)

I chose as the song for Fear. “Silver was a changed man once he was out there and had his back to his friends and the block house; his cheeks seemed to have fallen in, his voice trembled; never was a soul more dead in earnest”(170) Long john was afraid of death, and this changed him in different ways. “‘Come’, said

    The songs I chose match the criteria in many ways. The 1st song is dark and more terrifying, much like I imagine discovering a tomb filled with thousands of clay men would feel. The 2nd song is about hard work and long days, which it would have taken to uncover such a large tomb. The 3rd song is about preparing for something big, and I think that this would be a big event.…

    The poem Siren Song written by Margaret Atwood has a theme of sirens that are bored of singing them to death, and it works every time. The sirens song is a cry for help and the men are special because they are the only one that can help them. They end up killing the men once they are lured in. It has a tone of sadness and harshness. The song as a whole is a cry for help but has imagery of death.…

    I believe that friends are one of the themes of the book since there were many places throughout the book, where I noticed how play such a huge role in our lives, and how emotionally attached we are to them. For example at the beginning of this book, one can easily conclude and Rowdy, Juniors best friend, has a great impact on Junior’s, the main character, life. This is clearly evidenced on page 17 when Junior says “ It’s like he (Rowdy) is a family member, an extra brother and son”, and “He knew I was afraid of getting beat up……… Rowdy has protected me since I was born”. These two quotes clear show that Rowdy is always there to protect Junior, and they are so close that Junior considers Rowdy his brother. Reading these two parts made me think…

    “Hello darkness, my old friend / I’ve come to talk with you again” (1-2). This line from the song lyrics “Sounds of Silence” by Paul Simon depicts a dark and familiar silence that many know all too well. At some point, plenty of people experience a dark, and occasionally, scary loss that is typically emotionally somber and tough. For instance, the poem by Robert Hayden, “Those Winter Sundays," looks back at his childhood of an unappreciated relationship. The following poem, “Nighttime Fires” by Regina Barreca, tells the loss of a little girl’s innocence due to her father’s loss of his job.…

    The Last Survivor Thesis

    • 1424 Words
    • 6 Pages

    The extermination of a race of people seems taboo in our modern day. When reading “The Lament of the Last Survivor” there is clear and concise evidence to support the idea that a dejected man just witnessed the annihilation of his people. In the introduction of “The Lament of the Last Survivor” there are several future events that the author foreshadows from the story Beowulf. When he says “A slave has stolen a jeweled chalice and so provoked a dragon; yet more than the threat of retribution is at stake” (The Lament of the Last Survivor).The speaker is alluding to the same dragon that later kills Beowulf. In this quote the author also discusses himself as being a man, who is the last of an ancient race of people committing the treasures that…

    Under the guise of melting pots and diverse communities exist the many complications of racism and troubled pasts. Whether indigenous peoples try to immerse into mainstream cultures or remain independent of assimilation, it is often the case where their history is littered with examples of racism and various forms of impositions regarding colonial powers. The poems “The Loika” and “Make Me Human or Give Me Death” are examples of indigenous literature which speaks to the emotions of these often underrepresented communities. Authors Graciela Huinao and May Yang use personification and symbolism respectively to comment on the destruction caused by Americanization and educate communities on the current state of indigenous communities which have…

Jack was afraid from the beginning of death and when he got exposed from the toxic, he got even more afraid because he knew he was going to die.
