of Time and Space”. The reason why I choose this poem was because it was the best one I could play around with and connect to the photo of Mrs. Benson diving into the water. I also choose it because the message that I got from it was if you do lose sight of where you are from or who you are that person or place is always still in you. With this I tried to show that in my poem just in a little bit but in a different way. I did this when Mrs. Benson is looking back at her photo. She never realized…

Jung's theory also says that often the hero becomes the sacrificial scapegoat for his people or country. The sacrificial scapegoat is defined as a hero who must die for the well being of his country, people, or for the sins of his people in order to save the land (Guerin 163). In addition Jung says that the death of the hero as a sacrificial scapegoat can often be attributed to the hero's hubris, or excessive pride in themselves and their accomplishments (Guerin 168).

The language of poetry I have found myself in this situation many times before. The whole class staring at me because I started to speak, but what stumbles out seems to be foreign from what was in my head. I catch sight of what I am trying to say and I know it is perfect, yet the words are jumbled and hesitant. Everyone contemplating what they have heard, even though I swear they did not come out of my mouth. Which builds a wall between them and I, a language barrier restricting them from me…

Throughout the poem he speaks in 1st person, using the word “our” to make it seem as if he is speaking as a unified voice for the pain of all the soldiers, which makes it seem like less of an opinion and more of a mutually agreed statement. This is shown as he begins the poem with the opening phrase “our brains…

Words. Words can mean so many things. They can convey a feeling, thought, or opinion, but images and illustrations, if used effectively, can convey more.
