What do I mean by time and space? Time as in past, present and future. Space as in left and right, like spatial awareness.

The organization of the poem shows the progress of the rape.  The first quatrain presents the assault-how the swan literally drops onto Leda, how he's caressing her thighs, and how he's holding her helplessly underneath him.  The second quatrain reflects her emotions-how terrified she was, what should she do, should she try to push him off of her?  The third stanza presents the ejaculation scene ("a shudder in the loins engenders...")

Joyas Voladores by Brian Doyle and Feet in Smoke by John Jeremiah Sullivan are essays that both portray the ideas of living and dying. They are both effective in all the ways necessary. The determining factors of effectiveness are if they depict the right mood for the subjects, if they address the subjects, and if they give details. The mood for Joyas Voladores while living is the subject is very upbeat and elated. Brian Doyle uses hummingbirds as his subject. They represent living and dying in

driver’s license. However her mind is somewhere else, as she reflects over how it was to have sex for the first time the previous night with a guy named Simon. The sex did not measure up to her expectations and she jumps in between the present tense and the past tense, which leads her to stop the car at the end. The short story opens up in medias res. The reader is thrown into the story without any knowledge of what is happening or what has previously happened.

In the essay written by Joey Franklin, the author exposes his own internal conflict, as well as the existing prejudice against fast food restaurant workers. The work is well developed, with the use of witty diction and tone, in addition to the appeals to rhetorical devices. It is noticeable from the beginning of the work, that Franklin feels ashamed of having to work in a fast food restaurant. Throughout the entire work, the reader can notice how the main character grows and develops a new level

the regrets that she has about the whole trip. This shows the reader the transformation from a quiet woman with unspoken thoughts to one that has strong feelings and seems trapped in her guilt. On the other hand, by using narrators speaking in present tense offers a whole new outlook on each individual and how they change. Instead of seeing a direct before and after, there is a more subtle, slow change that can be viewed. As a result, the reader can see more in the character development as it unfolds

“Last Look” and “At Castle Boterel” both have a similar theme present, strong memories. “Last Look”, written by Seamus Heaney appearing in his sixth collection of poems in 1984, is both an elegy and a eulogy as it has a mournful tone whilst also being in praise of someone and commemorating their death. In this poem, that person is Gallaher, who we can assume is an old friend that Heaney misses. The title of the poem is ambiguous, it could mean the last time he saw Gallaher or it could suggest that

Alan Taylor Kenworthy Professor Yannakakis ENGL:1200:0066 10/03/2017 The Art of Storytelling Stories. The beauty of storytelling, what is it? What is its purpose? As Joan Didion once stated, “We tell ourselves stories in order to live” (Greenhouse 2014). And in the case of The Handmaid’s Tale, that this quote is relatable would be an understatement.

four points of view. Tennyson and Bronte are twins, Brewster is a mysterious boy who can take on the injuries of others and Cody is Brewster’s younger brother. Tennyson’s view is written in first person while Bronte’s, also in first person, is past tense. She reflects on the story. Brewster’s parts are poetic and in free verse. Cody uses a lot of similes and metaphors that are told in random thoughts spoken like a child. It is a story about empathy, a boy being able to take on someone else’s pain.
