There’s a cynical ridiculousness in the low-key “The Treasure”, the fourth fictional feature from Corneliu Porumboiu, author of “12:08 East of Bucharest” and “Police, Adjective”. I confess I expected more from the Romanian director/screenwriter, especially if we take into account the more valuable cinematic treasures mentioned above. All the features that characterize Mr. Porumboiu’s directorial approach can be found in his new deadpan comedy, which starts in a curious way, becoming overdetailed…

1937 there was lots of racism towards them and in 1969 when she was 41 years old she decided to create this poem to tell people about racism and trauma to try to stop racism. The main mood of this poem is upsetting and this is shown through the adjective she utilizes “fearful” and the verbs she utilizes, “the wings are clipped and his feet tied so he opens his throat to sing.” As the bird is entrapped, his wings are…

especially through diction in the personification of the future as “creep[ing] in this petty pace” (22). The unimportance of one’s future and meaning in life is emphasized through being described as petty.

into question who the imperative is addressing, and could suggests a possible disassociation of Berg (the protagonist) from himself, or the narrative. The use of adjectives “embalmed” “mummified” before clarifying what the object of these adjectives is, creates a foreboding undertone, , and mystifies the narrative. This choice of adjectives also suggests sterility and the ancient; these words imply keeping something dead preserved, both detached and entirely connected with death. This could be…

When I was in fifth grade, I was on my school’s Girls on the Run (GOTR) team. We spent 25 or so weeks training for a 5k race, learning life lessons, and building friendships along the way. For me, the best part was the running, I had a lot of energy growing up and running was a way for me to unleash it. The lessons were, for the most part, fun, interactive activities that tricked us into learning. I can truthfully say GOTR helped shape me into the person I am today and I am forever grateful.…

Writing is an important skill for all people to obtain at some point throughout their lives. My journey began with toddler years and being taught how to use verbs, nouns, and adjectives.
