Scythe

Sunday night at Riverdale, everyone at the Halloween party in the forest where all the Riverdale high school was invited except Jacob. Jacob a high school dude who had a very terrible childhood when one day his mom left a pot with boiling water at the edge of the stove when little Jacob was playing with his toys on the kitchen where the hot pot fell on Jacobs' face resulting in a third-degree burn in half of his face. Jacobs half face was burned and he will have a burned scar for the rest of his…

Thistles are born from redolence fighting the natural world of “rubber tongues of cows and the hoeing hands of men” (Hughes). The birth is brought about by violent imagery of a “blue-black pressure” that instills the image of a bruise. The burst forward with a vindictive manner. It comes from an unfruitful upbringing of an “Icelandic frost” armed with its painful spikes for protection. They are born from hard beginnings living I a primal state like the “gutturals” of people (Hughes). The plume…

Throughout “The Pardoner’s Tale,” many archetypal elements, such as ‘pairs of three, a test of morals, a mysterious guide, and a just ending’ characterize the exemplum. In regards to these elements, a key character in this tale is the old man, who clearly acts as “the mysterious guide” and leads the three rioters to their unforeseen death, adding to the allegory. In fact, the true identity of this old man is often debated. Accordingly, some readers may assume that the old man is a spy for Death,…

lived in hopes to be happy one day and he never understood why. They could be rich or poor, happy or sad, beautify or retched, but they all had the same fate. They would all sooner or later be greeted by the clad figure of Death and his legendary scythe. Many people look up to Angels, they worship them, but Death has realized long ago that he will never be cherished. He will be forever hated and he knows why but that doesn’t mean he understands. He was just doing his job. But when he looks…

apple-picking, mowing or mending walls. In After Apple Picking, the man who falls asleep, after picking apples, dreams of nothing but apples. His dream is nothing fantastic, it is expressive of his pre-occupation with the concerns of real life. In Mowing, the scythe voices the poet’s own realism when it whispers, ’’The fact is the sweetest dream that labour knows. ’’One must…

shinobi is the traditional way that the term ninja would have been spoken, it is only a rough chinese translation of the word ninja that has popularised the term. Also the term ninja has been helped along by the fact that most modern forms of media involving shinobi refer to them has ninja. For the purpose of this presentation I shall refer to them as shinobi. Now during the actual wars in japan ninjas were relatively undocumented with the exception being “Sun Tzu's: The Art Of War” where…

He would start off his day by polishing and shining his magic scythe, wiched gloomed in the sunlight. he had used it to cut the grass, and kill monsters. He would then go down into the city and getting small rations for his family. But on this particular day things did not seem right. The sun was beating down like…

the musicians,there is a female,wrapped in a shroud. The shroud represent the disease. Also around death there are people lying dead on the floor. I was interested in these picture because death was playing a violin. In most painting death uses a scythe. Also that the people that are running are musicians.

Over the summer I read Percy Jackson’s Greek Gods by Rick Riordan. The book was written from the perspective of a teenage boy, but still accurately tells the stories of the Greek gods. The particular story that interested me was “The Olympians Bash Some Heads”. This story told how the Greek gods became supreme over the Titans. Riordan used the Greek myths as a guideline for the story. In his work, he resolved many difficulties, including: freeing the gods, fulfilling the prophecy of Ouranos,…

research about people’s fascination with the morbid is about me trying to justify that I am not alone in this world. Perhaps I have watched too many cartoons where they objectified death as being this skull faced figure with a long black dress holding a scythe ( death probably uses something more “mobile” nowadays). This is a generation of dropping off the taboos and clichés, so let’s find another image to represent death. My first though was to picture death as a toothless Russian old lady (no…
