Science has progressed immensely over the past few years. For good, or bad? – this is based on an opinion, or several opinions. Toggling with DNA has proved to be effective in some cases; we have marched into cloning and genetic engineering with rapid evolution done by man. Evolution is described to be progression of […]

            Perspectives are magical. They can determine love or war, health or starvation. Yet, there are some perspectives that can go one step further and critically analyze (criticize) any piece of work. It is an occupation - to tell people your opinion, whether they like it or not.
            Getting back to what I am here […]

Examples of what I found hard to understand:

The King of Naples, being an enemy

         To me inveterate, hearkens my brother’s suit  (Lines 145-146)

The classroom buzzing with excitement
Poetry, did he say?
Let’s begin this unit
And awaken the fresh new day
            English has always been a subject I have enjoyed. However, once the poetry unit started, I have stopped just enjoying English; I have started to love the language. Poetry is a way of expression that even people poor at […]

In Morocco, at an Internet café, a man named Abdelftah Raidi was not allowed to view terrorist websites, and following
that, he committed suicide by blowing himself up using explosives hidden in his body. He killed himself and some people
were injured. Even his friend was found carrying explosives, but he was only injured. Yet, people believe […]

Before I start what I am going to say about this sonnet, I feel I have no right to do this. William Shakespeare is such a great author, that it is not in my place to criticize this sonnet in any way. I don’t have words to describe this sonnet whatsoever. Amazing, astounding, interesting…mundane words. […]

From you have I been absent in the spring,
When proud-pied April, dressed in all his trim,
Hath put a spirit of youth in everything,
That heavy Saturn laughed and leaped with him,
Yet nor the lays of birds, nor the sweet smell
Of different flowers in odor and in hue,

Or from their proud […]

I saw a boy one day
Walking toward it like he couldn’t say

He said he always knew me well

Everyday he could tell

You understand me he explained
 Because I’ve never felt the sameI stood bewildered for a while
Watching away as he cried
Sat down beside him that day
And asked […]
