Day Of My Manhood Feeling Of Restlessness Man
1,009 words
Today is like any another dreary day. My name is
the lonesome expression of anxiety,
Carsinigensian. So alone in my abyss of despair,
prayer is the only escape from this pain. Across
the many rolling hills lay the decadence that is
Thebes. The city is baron; it is but a wasteland
of poverty and angst. Many years have past since
the day the great king was brought to his knees by
the very city he had salvaged. It was the very day
of my birth that the deeds of the tyrant Oedipus
were revealed. It w...

Where Dracula Stoker v. s Coppola Where there is
no imagination there is no horror. Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle Imagination is the force that keeps
human desires alive. It is a state that allows
someone to give up repression and indulge into
temptation. Where the conscious mind is a state of
composed and rational behaviour, imagination
becomes the unconscious setting into a world of
countless fantasies where one does not need to
worry about the consequences. However,

Edgar Allan Poe Elmira Royster
1,578 words
Edgar Allan Poe Edgar Allan Poe was a bizarre and
often scary writer. People throughout history have
often wondered why his writings were so
fantastically different and unusual. They were not
the result of a diseased mind, as some think.
Rather they came from a tense and miserable life.
Edgar Allan Poe was not a happy man. He was a
victim of fate from the moment he was born to his
death only forty years later. He died alone and
unappreciated. It is quite obvious that his life
affected his writin...

Edgar Allan Poe Edgar Allen Poe

In human nature there exists a morbid desire to
explore the darker realms of life. As sensitive
beings we make every effort to deny our curiosity
in the things that frighten us, and will calmly
reassure our children that there aren? t any
creatures under their beds each night, but deep
down we secretly thrive on that cool rush of fear.
Despite our efforts to maintain a balance of
respectable emotions, we are a society of people
who slow down to look at traffic accidents and

Junior High First Year

My first impression of Miss Vicki was a highly
authoritative figure towering over me. Her voice
boomed and the earth shook whenever she marched.
She seemed like such an unapproachable and distant
person. That was in the first year of High School.
She was my Literature teacher then. During my
first year in school, she struck terror in my
heart. And everyone elses of course. The mere
mention of her name made the most unruly classes
silent. The birds stopped screeching. Even the
earth felt still. T...

Ku Klux Klan Blacks And Whites

A living organization changes with time. Some
parts of it may remain identical to that which was
first constructed. Most parts will adapt to
changes in the world, in society, and in mankind
itself. If it does not change, it withers and
dies. Organizations which fail to adapt to
changes, whether they like it or not, tend to
become shrunken relics of their original selves.
They become mummified images of a once living
creation. Such an organization is the Ku Klux
Klan, better known as the KKK. The...

Imagery of the Supernatural in The Fall of the
House of Usher Edgar Allan Poe's writings are

affects his morale. He believes that, as a result
