Beneath My Feet Stay In The Present Dirt
709 words
I felt the earth shake beneath my feet. A mere
thirty or so feet away, the ground crumbled from
underneath the surface, and the earth grew hot
beneath my feet. A bubble began to form in the
dirt, rising like a helium balloon, uprooting
trees and moving anything that could get in its
way. I ran to the abandoned truck near my
tree-fort in the forest and climbed upon the roof
using a primitive ladder I built earlier with
twine and plywood. Realizing that even with a few
tons beneath me, the bubble ...

Museum Of Art Freedom Of Expression
1,173 words
What is art? Can it be defined in any single
painting, or sculpture? Is it even something that
can be seen, or does it have to be experienced?
The term "art" is so vague that it can be applied
to almost anything, really. Mostly, however, art
should be that which frees our imagination. It
connects our conscious with our subconscious,
putting into a visual form what we feel and think.
It allows us to explore our inner self and fill
that urge to understand our minds and our
universe. Art helps us t...

Often in true tests of moral character where
people are tempted to deceive, be dishonest, or
take advantage of each other, there are few who
truly succeed. The story of The Crucible gives one
of the strongest tests of morality, where the

The epic of Gilgamesh was found in the mid
nineteenth century, written on over twenty five
thousand clay tablets. After much studying and
deciphering, this ancient Sumerian epic has
finally been translated, though many of the
tablets have not been found. It appears that all
the most important elements of the story probably
existed as separate poems when they were first
written. One of the oldest pieces of literature
found today, Gilgamesh is at least 1, 500 years
older than Homer's epics, and wa...

Cigarette Smoke Sonny Blues

James Baldwins story of redemption and musical
epiphany is filled with gritty realism and
thematic uses of music and imagery. One of the
strongest themes throughout the story is the use
of cigarette smoking as a symbol of interpersonal
barriers and depravity. The specific act of
smoking not only provides substance to a number of
characters within the story, but also symbolizes
the dishonesty and unapproachable nature of each
particular smoker. Likewise, each time a cigarette
is tossed away or ex...
