Improved Essays

The full bass music blared into her ears, the sounds heard from multiple feet away. Her eyes laid closed, and her boney finger tapped gently to the beat. She laid her short haired head to the cold desk, she winced as her warmed face touched the chilled light colored wood. Her bitter eyes snapped open, as a callous tap hit her shoulder. It took a few seconds to take in full view of the towering teacher, eyes boaring into hers, as if lightning and thunder were to clash on a stormy night. Flames in her eyes, she dared not to back down, as did the teacher.

Coldly the teacher attempted to gain ground on the child “Miss Wilma Marita, turn the music off now.”

But Wilma had no intention

    She sees the look of realization on the faces of the ones who have caused her so much pain as the questions are “like a blow on the face.” Her anger is brief but powerful as she drowns in the weight of her grief once more when she sees the “dying” and “neglect” of her children. Given our knowledge of generic conventions such as personification, symbolism, and historical context, the reader is given an even better understanding of the underlying theme and message of the…

    The Victims Poem Analysis

    • 5 Pages

    Focusing on word choice, the speaker states, “She took it and/took it,” using the word “it” to describe the abuse (1-2). Although abuse is seen as a very serious topic in this poem, the effects of the speaker’s abuse is lessened by calling it a vague name and by doing so, shines all the spotlight onto how the speaker’s feelings toward the father as well as his own victimization is the main focus of the poem. Lending insight into the tone, the speaker says, “Then you were fired, and we/grinned inside” (4-5). By using imagery, Olds shows the tone of the poem by means of the way the speaker and their family finds malicious glee in the father’s slow deterioration. The speaker continues on to state, “Would they take your/suits back too, those dark/carcasses hung in your closet” (11-13).…

She was exquisite; with legs longer than the Nile, more curves than Lombard Street, and eyes swimming with sin, her carnal magnetism left his nerves raw and his body aching with desire. His breath hitched and his legs buckled as she sauntered towards him. He took a tentative step forward, thick tension saturating the atmosphere as she tilted her head and affirmed his desire with a nod.…

    Eady constantly repeats the phrase “A long scream” at the beginning of each new paragraph to explain to the readers a sense of defiance from the children. Even though they were not raised to want more for their lives they seemed to have developed the unwanted emotion anyway. Eady then states that the schoolchildren did “what they could and all they could do was turn on each other” , this tells the audience that they found every way possible to resist the shriveled “grey” environment that was forced upon them. Cornelius Eady goes on in his poem to give examples of how while being raised to be nothing the schoolchildren start to utilize the skills and become the average people they are suppose to be by bullying “fat children” and “freezing out shy girls on the dance floor”. This confirms for the audience that Eadys conclusion was in fact…
