In the Poems Homo Suburbiensis by Bruce Dawe and In the park by Gwen Harwood both poets have represented this poem. In Homo Surbiensis Dawe talks about a man which is alone with his thoughts.

The poem “Credo” by Andrew Zawacki, while this is a self-reflecting piece, he also shows his naturist interpretation of the world. You can understand his deep feeling for the subject, that this isn’t some piece he wrote over a protracted time, this was a short surge of emotion that impeccably captured his thoughts and state of mind.

“The Scream” I really like this painting because somehow it involves mystery and insecurity and to my eyes, the rare views in it reflect a sense of how deep the feelings and thoughts of a person can be. In addition, the fact that the composition does not allow viewers to appreciate the face of the screaming person, is what has drawn me to it. Even though it seems to be that it was a lovely afternoon for everyone, it seems that it was not for the scared looking person. Although two boats are…

the argument that all white people have things that they had no idea that they originated from Native American culture and that in a way they are disgracing their culture and beliefs. She assumes that we don’t have Native roots until the end of the poem saying that maybe we have a grandma who was Native American.
