Crimson

quarterback Baker Mayfield. Mayfield walked on at Texas Tech and won the starting job as a true freshman. After transferring and walking on at Oklahoma, Mayfield beat out 2014 Sugar Bowl MVP Trevor Knight, who had just defeated the third-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide in that Sugar Bowl. In order to punch their ticket to the College Football Playoff National Championship in Glendale, Ariz. on Jan. 11, the Sooners will look to harness the emotion and…

The Red Room in Jane Eyre The struggle of Jane’s path to gain acceptance and freedom in Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë is symbolized by the red-room. Jane’s inferiority and insecurities stem from the emotional trauma she experiences from Mrs. Reed’s punishing her by locking her up alone in the red-room. From her experiences with the red-room and the Reed’s, Jane continues to remember the red-room whenever she feels ashamed. Furthermore, red imagery becomes symbols of danger and foreshadows…

stick-like arms around himself in desperation to shelter them from the biting wind. However, a shudder still weaved its way up his spine as he began to push the vessel farther out of the shallow cover surrounded by dizzily high cliffs stained with ashes. Crimson Cliffs was located at the southernmost point on the overly large wet rock known as Krieger. The boy shuddered once more, though this time it wasn’t from the cold. His hazelnut eyes flickered over to the sandy shore just a few paces…

Mars’ Secret The vermilion terrain that the rover had wandered over in its short life was the planet Mars. MER-D Gypsy, the 2014 NASA Mars Rover, rolled over its cold sands, then turned its spherical, cycloptic head and looked over the trench before it. The camera on its orbicular crown began snapping photos almost immediately. It was beautiful, a rich, orange coloured valley that seemed bottomless. Markings and natural carvings into the scarlet flesh of the planet showed that water had once…

Many times in the poems, there were verses symbolizing either his strength or his powers. “The challenge of Thor” is a poem written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Longfellow was an American poet who was known for doing many great things. One of the things he did was translate Dante Alighieri's “Divine Comedy” to english. He also was the writer of “Paul Revere's Ride” and ‘The song of Hiawatha”. In “The challenge of Thor”, Longfellow uses a strong and Powerful tone. It is a free verse poem.…

This allusion is seen in the following excerpt: “O Rose, thou art sick! The invisible worm, that flies in the night, In the howling storm, Has found out thy bed of crimson joy, And his dark secret love Does thy life destroy” (330). Furthermore, Deborah was depressed and represents the sick rose in Blake’s poem. Additionally, Deborah’s life was filled with sorrow and her depression was represented as the invisible worm…

form with an imperious gesture to him. It was a woman, red and white, hating and loving, that called him with the voice of his hopes.” (Crane, 164), or how from the “distance the many fires, with the black forms of men passing to and fro before the crimson rays, made weird and satanic effects" (Crane, pg 23). The flag in battle was Henry’s motivation to keep going, and became his goal to protect his country, the fair maiden that was fragile, yet a goddess, and the night was Henry’s fear and…

something else to happen. It also represents a boring routine because all streets look the same and are the same. The children as happy, joyful, and unique people, which is something opposite of the routine. “Grass grows soft and white”(3), “sun burns crimson bright”(4), “moon-bird rests from his flight”(5), “to cool the peppermint wind”(6) all symbolize things the opposite of what to expect near the sidewalk. It sort of means that you have to do what children do, something different. The…

think I’ll ever manage to get rid of this sight. Sean Patrick was squirming on the floor, clutching his own throat. Poor boy didn’t deserve to go out like that. He was the youngest out of all of us and everyone seemed to like him. I could see the crimson blood burst from his throat! I’ve seen it happen before, but never under these circumstances, never to a friend. All I could do was scream for help and watch as he slowly faded away. McCaan applied gauze to his wounds but I think we all knew, it…

I hate being stationed on the planet of Zion. This barren wasteland is encompassed by swampy marshes, so we are afraid to wander outside of our outpost, and the only lifeforms we can see are ten to twenty feet long with sharp, jagged teeth. This must be hell, I think. “Come on!” shouted the commander. “Fall in!” demanded the officers. “Move with a purpose!” I had gotten used to these commands since I decided to enlist in my planet’s Marines around a year ago. I don’t quite remember. My memory…
