Didnt Realize Feel Bad
1,752 words
She gripped the the hard cherrywood head bord,
waiting for it to be over. Her back lay against
the feather soft pillows and cool sheets that
brushed across her tensed body. The bed that had
always brought her so much comfort at night, was
now the last place she wanted to be, especially
with him. After he had finished, she made her
usual noises to let him know that she was done.
She couldnt think of anything to say. Stretching
out on her back, trying to ease the achiness, she
lit her cigarette. S...

the sky as clear as crystal glass, you peer out
into the open sky to the land down below. The door
opens in front of you the wind rushes into the
aircraft. You step out falling freely away as if
you were a bird soaring on the winds of time. You
peer back to the aircraft for a brief second to
see it speeding away. You feel weightless as the
wind roars around you. Looking down you suddenly
realize that you are falling towards the earth.

Adolf Hitler Napoleon Bonaparte

History has taught us that from the advent of
time, man has proven himself to be his own worst
enemy. Throughout history, various controversies
and disputes have progressed into major wars with
devastating effects. Some people believe that
these are the subsequent results of increasing
power in man. To many it may seem that the
acquisition of varying degrees of power and
influence cause marked changes in otherwise placid
personalities. The more power one has, the more he
wants and, what is worst...

Religious Paradise Chase World
431 words
When I was a fairly precocious young man I became
thoroughly impressed with the futility of the
hopes and strivings that chase most men restlessly
through life. Moreover, I soon discovered the
cruelty of that chase, which in those years was
much more carefully covered up by hypocrisy and
glittering words than is the case today. By the
mere existence of his stomach everyone was
condemned to participate in that chase. The
stomach might well be satisfied by such
participation, but not man insofar a...

this as an invitation for a reply t...

The DRINKING Age Why cant the legal drinking age
be lowered to 18? This is a question asked by
thousands of kids and adults under the age of 21
years. Over all if you think about it is sort of
ignorant how the government made the required
drinking age 21, were they thinking that when you
reach 21 yrs of age you are more responsible and
more privileged than any one else? I guess no one
really knows. But, really why did the law mandate
all states to raise the drinking age to 21 in
1987. I mean com...

People Of Color Racial Profiling
252 words
Despite the civil rights victories of 30 years
ago, official racial prejudice is still reflected
throughout the criminal justice system. For people
of color in cities large and small across this
nation, north and south, east and west, Jim Crow
justice is alive and well. Today skin color makes
you a suspect in America. It makes you more likely
to be stopped, more likely to be searched, and
more likely to be arrested and imprisoned. There
is nothing new about this problem. Police abuse

Louis piece is a lesson in polytonality,

is an imitation of a car horn that seems designed
to grab hold of the listener. If I were
inattentive before this piece, I certainly was
wide awake when it was over. Ligeti seems to have
sculpted a piece together from bits and pieces of
other musical styles: a sort of modern-art
approach to music. The violins tun...
