of it's great achievements like civil law,
politics and literature, the collective willpower

Grassy And Wanted Part Of The Poem
636 words
People make decisions every single day, even if
they know it or not. Whether it is an important
decision as in buying the right car, or a little
decision as in deciding what to eat for lunch. No
matter what the decision maybe, one has to make
choices everyday. Although it may be the wrong
choice later on, no one has the ability to look
into the future. But one must move on even though
it may not be the right choice. Robert Frost
explains this well in The Road Not Taken, in which
he describes a s...

Roller Coaster Second Quatrain
1,143 words
In his English sonnet When I Have Fears (pg. 17,
Vendler), John Keats attempts to put into words
the human emotions felt when dealing with death. I
believe that Keats wrote this poem to describe the
natural order of emotions he went through while
thinking of his own mortality. The tone of the
sonnet takes a roller coaster course throughout
the poem from one quatrain to the next. With
careful examination one can see that Keats used
the first quatrain to describe a state of utter
confusion, the se...
