.... is to prose as dancing is to walking.’ Poetry means the something different to almost everyone from the window cleaner who left school at fourteen to the highly educated head of English at Malvern College. Poetry is whatever you want to be, whatever it means to you personally and whatever it means to the poet. I have interviewed over twenty people and what I have established is that everyone has their own definition of poetry. However there is a basic difference between poetry and prose. It seems to be that poetry can be set out in many different formats, and does not necessarily need to make complete sense (even though it has a me .....

.... souls of the black people and the black souls of the white people that exploit them. The old ladies in the Belgian office sat there and knitted black wool, symbolizing the dark fate and tragedy that were to follow. You can find many, many other examples of the usage of black and white to symbolize feelings and emotions, as well as a few other colors. There are also some objects that Conrad uses to create a symbolism. Take, for example, the stick of wax that the manager breaks while he is talking about Kurtz. I don’t know, but if you ask me the manager wishes that the wax actually was Kurtz. I think that the oil painting that was done by Kurtz shows .....

.... the more typical actions of a god. After Paris judged Aphrodite the fairest over herself and after a young Trojan boy replaced her daughter Hebe as cupbearer to the gods, she was resentful toward Troy. So she sided with the Greeks and would stop at no length to express her will. Scheming and manipulating, she even dared to trick Zeus. Along with Athena, she is seen as the chief divine aid to the Greeks. Being the god of the sea, Poseidon was another strong supporter of the ocean-faring Greeks. Whenever Zeus turned his back, he tried to help the Greeks in the fight. He felt that he was somewhat Zeus's equal as his brother, but recognizing Zeus's authority .....

.... but death should not be an option. I feel that the government is taking the easy way out when it pushes for capital punishment. There are other ways to punish and rehabilitate the convicted. Barbaric is a sound adjective to describe capital punishment. We are a civilized society and therefore should have the utmost respect for human life. Killing, regardless of the reason, is barbaric. In David Bruck's essay, "The Death Penalty", he clearly shows the barbarism involved with the death penalty. He says, "Perhaps we want retribution on the flesh and bone of a handful of convicted murderers so badly that we are willing to close our eyes to all the dem .....

.... attempted to hurt you. This can be done legally or physically. Also a family is a very important thing to have. If anyone should try to come in the way of your family they should be punished . Your family is there for you to lean on when you need support and love. That is why my family is the most important thing to me to fight for. In addition to the other two topics, my third thing to fight for would be my freedom. My freedom is very important to me. I would fight so I would not be under communistic rule or enslaved in any way. Also I would fight to stay out of prison if I was falsely accused. Therefore that is why this is the third most im .....

.... Australians could relate to the Kerrigans and in some ways see themselves in this simple family. The film endorses many Australian values and attitudes, to which the everyday Australian can not only relate to but also understand aswell. The text acts as a medium for the viewer to realise his/her own values and helps the viewer to recognise the social values that surround him/her. However, texts do not merely inform the reader of values present in the society. They can also reflect the current shift in values and attitudes away from the dominant ideologies. This can be seen heavily in the novel ‘Cloudstreet’ by Tim Winton. In this text many charac .....

.... with alcoholism. Of all these topics, Poe's favorites were the death of a beautiful woman, a feeling which he knew all too well, and the general topic of death. During Poe's life, he experienced extreme social isolation. These feelings of separation began when his father died or disappeared around the time of the birth of Poe's sister, Rosalie. The family then moved and he was separated from his older brother, who was left with relatives in Baltimore. During those toddler years, Poe found his mother in the last stages of tuberculosis. Upon her death, he was then separated from his younger sister, Rosalie. Another major low point in his life was the death .....

.... , that trial would of been over a long time ago. A rich person has the money to hire expensive lawyers , and they can tie up the system as long as they want. A jury would be more likely to convict a poor person in stead of sending a respectable rich one to jail. The jury might think, If he has money , why would he rob someone ? Because the fact that he/she is rich ! But this is just one place where money can play a big factor in life . Look at the medical field. If you don't have any money, then you probably don't get the best service you can . Its easy to get a bill in the thousands for a hospital visit or a doctor visits. Some of the medicine out .....
