    real thing. This could only result in bad news. And so it did. The Telegraph reported that on this day, many attacks were made on ginger school kids. 'Secondary school pupils were left battered and bruised'. This is ridiculous and proves that the nonsense doesn't stop at senior level. So it's about time we stop. We need to reinforce the issue of gingerism. Posters, social media, newspapers, marches. Whatever we can do, just spread the word that gingers are making a comeback and we will stop at…

    notions of the art we observed? I am of the firm opinion that they do not. For some inexplicable reason, art connoisseurs began propagating sophisticated nonsense about the art they observed. I am guessing to appear more cultured than the average Joe. Given the fact that people love to follow, this ridiculous practice quickly grew. This nonsense continued to grow exponentially until the public shut off their senses completely and began simply agreeing with whatever theories the “expert”…

    wasn’t long before I was parroting the syllables, the similar vowels, and talking nonsense to her as she spoke Spanish to me. In hindsight, I think Elvira, the oldest of her eight siblings, missed her family, her language, her home. Perhaps I, however temporarily, became one of her younger sisters.

    Allen Ginsberg’s poetry not only allows us insight into his personal unrest, but also the unrest of the American political system. By looking at both America and Howl, Ginsberg’s disgust of the political system and the socio-cultural pull it has on Americans becomes ostentatiously clear. The tension that is sensed in Ginsberg’s poetry is often a personal struggle in dealing with the unruly American way and attempts at forcing people to conform, especially during life after WWII. These poems are…
