'Gender Stereotypes In The Film Sorry'

The way the poet used powerful word choices and emotion to show how he felt throughout the poem In the beginning of the poem it starts off sad but by the end of the poem it shows a side of anger. I thought the poem was very strong and powerful because of the personification he used. I think his poem was powerful because it felt personal and something relatable in his life. Throughout the poem the poet seemed like he was talking about someone in his life such as his partner. I think if the poet did not seem like he was talking to a partner then it would not be as straightforward as it was. Since he used personification throughout the poem it made me as a reader to be able to connect with what the poet and it made it feel more personal. I really liked the word choice the poet used throughout the poem. Some of the words stood out to me more than others. One word that really stood out to me when reading this poem was the word “shit.” While most poets do not use profanity, it helped show how he was feeling and the emotions he was using at that time. I think this poet was speaking from his life experience and wanted to show the emotions he was feeling when this was happening. I think people write poetry for an act of self-expression.

He is content and comfortable with the way he lives and happy working in a job that he loves, but not currently as he is “trapped” in his leg cast. Some of the characters don't have this luxury as him but rather a job that is solely provide them with money, like Miss Lonely Heart. Jeffries is disparaging of the wealthy, which is targeted to Lisa on many occasions, and believes that they live in a world with not

It is certainly implied that both of these poems are concerned with the ideal of true love, but we have seen that they differ quite dramatically with the authors' mindset and themes which they are attempting to portray. Both poems revolve around the consistency of love, whether existent or not, though their discrepancies are valid, it is these discrepancies, which provide readers with the conception and comprehension of what true love really is.

No matter the nature of their relationships, both speakers can relate in that the people mentioned in their poems are flawed.

While many films may touch on subjects race and stereotypes, these themes are especially explicit in 2004 film ***Crash***, where there are many instances of various characters exhibiting different forms of prejudice and stereotypes. One of the most prominent stereotyping displayed is the “out-group homogeneity effect”, which is “the tendency to see members of out-groups as very similar to one another” according to ***Discovering Psychology by Hockenbury and Hockenbury***. In other words, this effect is where a person sees those in other groups (out-groups) as being much more similar to each other and less diverse, while they see those in their own group (in-group) as being much more diverse. This often leads to those in an out-group of

One is remembering the loved one and the other one is trying to convince herself to be strong because that beloved person is not there

Making the reader to understand that the man is trying everything to make the relationship work, but no matter the circumstances he always going to love her. In the first poem the author used several of words that can evoke the feeling of love and sadness in the poem. “It’s as if, a butterfly in dreams, you were my soul, / and as if you were the soul’s word, melancholy” which allows the reader to feel the sadness that the author is trying to share.
