The interaction between the explorers from Western Europe and the indigenous people of North and South America was shaped by the different cultures and beliefs that each come from. Over the course of several hundreds of years, many different explorers from Western Europe made the voyage to the Americas. Whether they were exploring the different bodies of land in the search of riches, or conquering the indigenous people that resided there, the attitudes of the men that traveled there were shaped…

strangers. My fingertips are the cold colour of the dusking, January sky. The streets of New York are swarming with absorbed souls, all caged by their own thoughts. I hang on to words spoken by strangers, attempting to distract myself from the piercing wind, numbing my bones. You could say I’m a regular. Baptised on the streets by the cold looks of bystanders. “The Madison-Inn Tramp”. This is my corner. My bite of “The Big Apple”. Today, a minute feels multiplied, dragging on and on like a…

stiffness of the muscles in the body, arms, or legs. Cyanosis may occur with stiffening of the chest muscles. Tonic-Clonic (grand mal) is a common seizure associated with an aura. It presents with a loss of consciousness (which may occur following a piercing cry) and the entire body experiences violent tonic contractions followed by rhythmic clonic contractions. Loss of sphincter control is also common. Children aged 3 months to 6 years may experience tonic-clonic seizures when they have a high…

to get as close to her sister as she can by “kneeling before the closed door with her lips to the keyhole”. Josephine begs her to open the door, afraid she will make herself sick. When Louise finally opens the door, the reader is left to wonder if there was any dialog between Josephine and Louise or what Josephine may have thought about Louise’s newfound happiness. The next scene describes Josephine’s “piercing cry” as Brently Mallard enters “the front door with a latchkey”. The style leaves…

of the rooms in the psychiatric ward of some hospital. I was covered in bandages all over my body (even my face and my head), and pain ran through my whole body-my back, my stomach, my neck-every single place. It felt like a countless needle was piercing my body. That kind of pain. I understood that I had some awful injury, but I couldn’t figure out why I was in that kind of place. At that time, it was a wonder-well more strange. Soon, a doctor came in my room and took charge of me. He said his…

cheeks are rosy and her skin is white. He mentions pleasant fruits, particularly cherries which he describes her red lips and her white teeth. Her lips are cherry red. They enclose a double row of pearls (her teeth). When she laughs, he sees these pearls contrasted with her lips. The poet goes into describing that the woman is so beautiful that she is "threatening with piercing frowns to kill" she isn't actually going to kill the man with her frowns, but it says that if the woman does frown…

Deirdre It was 3:00 AM and he had a cigarette pursed against his lips. The bright light illuminating from his iPhone screen irritated his swollen bloodshot eyes as he stared at the image on his screen. Deirdre. She was standing next to him with her head against the crook of his neck. She was his sleepless nights, the voice in his ear that told him to drown in endless nights of binge eating and alcohol drinking. She was his favourite game. Managarm straighten in his bed. He could sense…

waited for the raven-haired man's command. The man, creature, was painful in his beauty, obsidian eyes hooded with apathy as his outstretched hand guided the whipping midnight. The woman coughed amid the thinning air, breath escaping her blue-tinged lips and hanging in a silvery cloud before her. Through her agony, she slid her eyes around this home, this heavens forsaken excuse for a life, and decided that perhaps it wouldn't be so bad to die. With crimson lining the edges of her vision, she…

This summer I met a girl at the mall named Brooklyn from Sioux Falls, she is about 5 foot and had gauges and a tongue piercing, brown eyes and dirty blonde hair. We both started talking while we both liked the same poster at spencers, a store at the mall and reluctantly she gave me her snapchat and we talked all day and all night. When the fair came to town we both decided to go together. We were having, riding rides I’d usually would never go on but she insisted I get on the kamikaze with her.…

Focusing on the cracks of the sidewalks, while listening to De talk about the description of his week. Wearing washed out jeans and button up, wondering where the distant crying was coming from, waking and taking buses for miles finally arrived to this washed down building they call school. Always have your fist ready because this place isn't something you would call safe. This place is nonexistence in the reality of this world, the things we go over in this place has nothing to do with the…
