The Dark Side of the Moon

Shadow is the part that people want to hide and deny. It is also the dark side that we cannot accept and face. It is often hidden in the subconscious so that sometimes they forgot the shadow or unable it detects its existence. However, it brings a significant impact by surrounding in people thought every day and dominated one's life. In A Streetcar Named Desire, Tennessee Williams depicts Blanche DuBois as someone who relies on a phony world of dreaming and imagination in order to find a good…

Dalé A man stands abreast to the greyish shoreline upon a rocky island. He lets out a deep moan that smells of whisky from behind his unkempt pepper-salt beard and lifts his spyglass to a baggy eye. Seabirds call in the distance, swooping over one another in play. The air smells of salt and diesel, and is rife with moisture which forms a heavy fog. In the distance, the man sees a spiralling beacon of light. Behind him, the island's lone oak tree groans slightly in the wind and crackles with…

but was successful in orienting my main message towards the intended audience. The first reason I choose this message was merely because I felt sorry for the children living in the current society for their disadvantage of being incapable to go out side and enjoy the weather like I did when I was a child. I believe that the time that children can spend outdoors is of course an advantage…

comes up since the beginning of human story telling. For example, according to an Aboriginal story from Australia the sun rises because the animals were tired of living in the dark so they pushed the sun up with sticks. Now the sun walks across the sky with flames only for it to be burned out when in reaches the West side (Worldstroies.org).

window and describing the sketches of nature that she sees, Lowell communicates her feelings of loneliness and struggle of feeling like an outsider. In similar fashion, MacNeice also stands presumably before his window, but instead of personifying the moon, he observes the rain falling and the sound of the rain on the London city streets which inspires him to go on "an imagined journey across the roof-tops of London as religious, moral and metaphysical questions are considered." (Herron, 139)…

What also makes the poem influential is that his romantic streak has almost no tint of religion. Instead, he speaks of the "Sea of Faith" without linking it to any kind of heaven or high power. This "faith" seems to have guided decisions…

overhears a worker spewing hypnopaedic propaganda, where one such line states that "..there is always soma, delicious soma, half a gramme for a half-holiday, a gramme for a week-end, two grammes for a trip to the gorgeous East, three for a dark eternity on the moon..." (pg. 56). In our present day society, we have no such drug that everyone is “addicted” to. However, we do have technology, such as our phones, that give off similar dopamine responses that drugs simulate. On the other hand, the…

“Some people believe it is the ghosts of the coal miners, but no one knows for sure. My cousin went was exploring up there and got lost. They looked for months for him, but never found any trace of him. There are other people missing and were never found. The sheriff has a basket full of excuses about what happened. None of them makes any sense.” “What are you talking about?” Ruth asked. “I keep a list of people who are missing and you wouldn’t believe the names on that list. This town holds…
