Elizabeth Bishop is one of the world’s most well known poets that has survived the ages with her excellent use of imagery and words to paint her poem as a picture. It is common in Bishop 's poems for her to use a certain style of writing out of habit as it is common in more than one piece, but sometimes that habit seems to creep toward an obsession. With some of Bishop’s poems, it is nice to use these words as a paintbrush on an easel, but for most of her work, it becomes more of a hindrance…

"Okay, first, you can cut them into little pieces, and when your done bring it up to my healing quarters please?" I ask. "Your healing quarters, what happened?" He asks, sounding censured.

Carole King and Carly Simon are two of very few female individuals who played critical roles in the popular music scene from the 1950s-1970s. As young women, King and Simon were limited by the social norms of relationships between men and women and stereotypes and expectation for women.

Beautifully crafted, Carole King’s album Tapestry is a work of art that I am glad that I got the chance to listen to it. To have such wonderfully created music is a gift. I am glad that she shared her own life experiences to create these songs. Unlike Taylor Swift, I feel as if her interpretations are more realistic and meaningful. She has lyrics that provide a realistic outlook on love and life. These songs are able to connect with the listen to a more profound and thoughtful level. With that…

He has sharp, amber eyes with low lids and thin, pointed…

“Birmingham certainly still bears the scars of its turbulent past, but today we choose to look beyond those ugly scars,” -Robert Bentley. On September 15, the 16th Street Baptist Church was targeted by the KKK to inflict terror on the black community. The bombing helped bring national support for ending segregation and eventually led to justice for African Americans. Although many people do not know the significance of the Birmingham church bombing, it left an immense impact on America’s…
