Adam Sparks Chris Pappas ENC 1102 December 10, 2017 An Ephemeral Account of Cut-Up Poetry “Cut-Up” by definition, means divided into pieces by cutting.

This method is used by taking a completely written section of text and separating it into pieces with very little or single words on each piece. The resulting pieces are then rearranged into a new text. Cut-up writing is often difficult or at times incomprehensible and…

“Icarus in Catechism Class,” a poem written by Dominador Ilio, revolves around the persona wanting to escape the catechism class that he is in. On the other hand, “Musée des Beaux Arts,” a poem written by WH Auden, shows how the “Old Masters” understand suffering as depicted in several artworks, especially Brueghel’s painting of the fall of Icarus, as seen by the persona in a mueseum. This close reading will focus on the importance of Icarus and how suffering is depicted in the poems. Making…

“A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” is an anomaly. Its size, as well as Hemingway’s unique writing style, sets it apart from most short stories. Hemingway uses simple language in an extremely short, uneventful story to convey deep, profound themes, which are prevalent in almost everyone’s life. He does not embellish or add any grandiose sentiments, as many writers do; he simply presents the story as it is. There are three main characters, all unnamed, who create the majority of the story purely with…

On the other hand there is Plath. As it was earlier mentioned critics define Sylvia Plath as a confessional poet, pre-feminist, suicidal poet who is obsessed to a certain extent with the theme of death. In Lady Lazarus the narrator is in 1st person this is shown through the use of “I”. The narrator is a narcissist who is obsessed with the idea of death and makes herself be undefeatable against death as she is “a sort of walking miracle.” This is one of the reasons why critics associated it as…

My Three Favorite Poems I picked three of my favorite works from several poems and songs to evaluate on why I really like them. Each one of them are very talented individuals who make great works of art. One of my favorite songs is “Copperhead Road” by Steve Earle. I really like how Steve Earle used an Archetype when he frequently used the words Copperhead Road. He also used imagery when the narrator said, “You could smell the whiskey burnin' down Copperhead Road” for the people who knows what…

“Beautiful in the mind, Like a word we are waiting to hear”. Adrienne Rich was an amazing poet, her two poems I chose, “A Ball is for Throwing” and “Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers” not only captured my attention but required genuine thought while discussing them. In both of her works, Rich uses her work to show the importance of seizing the meaningful moments in your life. Both works have metaphors helping the reader understand what she truly means. In “A Ball is for Throwing” Rich uses the ball to…

his murder and ‘taming’ of his previous duchess, the young women in ‘The laboratory’ takes pride in the fact that she is plotting the murders of those she sees as betrayers and revels in the act she is soon to commit. The use of enjambment and AB rhyme scheme in this poem gives it a fast and fluid pace, this pace adds to the sense of excitement and joy that the mistress is feeling while preparing for the murder. This shows her cold, sadistic views towards death going as far to take joy in…

Samuel Butler once said, “Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one’s head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forget life, to be at peace.” This was similar to how Emily Dickinson viewed death, it was not something to be feared, but something to be embraced. Many of Emily Dickinson’s poems focus on this theme of death. Emily Dickinson’s early life and encounters with death led to the themes of…
