Journal Activity 10


The room I'm in is small and confined.There is a rough, small, cozy bed which keeps me warm and where
all my imagination is limitless. Above the bed is rectangular shelve that holds my guitar.
beside it is a small wooden desk which has 2 drawers to hold all my things.The
shelves are above the desk to hold my book neatly. There is a window in the middle of the room
that opens up the main road, you can here
ambulance siren every night. And finally there is the Room Mate, who is a mature yet childish being,
who things the world should know all what happen to him in the past.

The room I'm in is small. It has a bed, desk and window.

The room I'm is smaller than a jail cell, An uncomfortable bed, connected to a small desk.
A window in the middle of the room that keeps you up all day.A roommate who is a pain in the derriere.

Review of Red Solo Cup...


Red Solo Cup

This cup object is one of the useful and efficient thing to get! It has allot of fun stored
within the shape, some of these fun are BEER PONG, it can used to make Popsicle , you can make pyramid
out of it. It's efficient, it can be thrown after excessive use, cheap, and wont break easily unless
applied pressure.
But Red Solo Cup can't be found everywhere in the world! if you decide to travel, don't
forget your Red Plastic Cup!.

Like I said earlier, Red Solo Cup is a useful and efficient thing to get. Everyone should have
stacks of it at their home. Cause when the Red Solo Cup is used, you know that's when the fun start
Heck there's also a song about it too!!

"Home in the Garden"


Home in the Garden

She’s dancing in the garden,
Happy as can be,
Singing to all the birds,
Sitting in the trees.

She loves her new home,
She has waited for so long,
Looking forward to this day,
For it is here where she belongs.

We have been apart for so long,
But she knew I had to go,
I told her I would see her again,.
That I love her, so she knows

I finally catch her eye,
And I begin to race,
Through the grass and flower beds,
To kiss her and embrace.

At last we are together again,
She will never be alone,
In the garden at last,
We have both, finally, come home. 



"Home in the Garden" is a 20 lines poem composed of 5 quatrains with a regular rhyme scheme of ABCB. The rhythm is consistent through out the poem giving it a subtle feeling as readers read through. This subtle feeling will help readers know about the plot, in the beginning and ending, of the poem.

"Ozymandias" by Percy Shelley


In Percy Shelley's "Ozymandias"  the middle stanza is ironic compared to the last stanza.  The Stanza has a powerful language used to describe a fallen Ozymandias. It leads use to think that there use to stand a statue of someone with power. Describing what he did and how he would be remember throughout history. Shelley then abruptly change the tone in the last stanza. By phrasing the reality of this once powerful ruler. Now we see it clearly how pride comes before a fall.

Shelley wrote "My name is Ozymandias, kings of kings:" Shelly wanted to think that the statue that once stand belong to a king. "Look on my work, ye Mighty and despair!" it clearly shows that shelley wanted us to think that he will be remembered throughout history. Shelly's last stanza
" Nothing beside remains, Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare"
quickly erase the idea of him being remember throughout history by saying that the once standing tall statue is "wreck" (like a ship, can't be fixed) in the vast desert sand

"Inside an Island" by BootsandCatsandBootsandCats


A land filled with joy and beauty
The Harbor drinks the Atlantic ocean
witty climate that is sometimes moody
People with a proud and healthy notion.

Signal hill looks over where we are;
The houses here are made of the rainbow.
George Street is where you will find all the bars,
And many times a fishing you will go.

A famous boat crashed here, off of the coast;
A lot of people died, but not Kate Winslet
Republic of Doyle is watched the most,
A strong accent is found here, in this inlet.

City with numerous beautiful ponds
City in Newfoundland that is St.John's!


Didn't think i had it in me to write a sonnet, in my first sonnet the form helps the reader
understand the mood, which is curious and joyful. With out using this form my sonnet wouldn't sound great.
I didn't deliberately use poetic language, because I was caught up on making sure to have the iambic pentameter.

"landscape:1" by bpNichol

landscape: I – 1986 – bpNichol
alongthehorizongrewanunbrokenlineoftrees
_______________________________________________________________________

Analysis:

The form of the poem and content works hand in hand to help understand the the poem.
 The single line of the poem can be viewed by readers as an example of symbolism and irony. The poem quotes "alongthehorizongrewanunbrokenlineoftrees," readers can easily view the line of words as being unbroken, with no spaces to separate them. Like the unbroken line of trees mentioned in the poem, so are the words of the poem. The words themselves, could symbolize the trees, because both are unbroken lines.
   Along with an example of symbolism there also appears to be a sample of irony. Both the line of trees and the line of words in the poem remain unbroken; the line of trees, with no spaces between them, become a border and separate the land from the horizon. The unbroken line, breaks the boundary between the land and the horizon.
