is there distance?

Should there be distance between the story and the storyteller?
There should be a distance between the story and the storyteller unless the storyteller is the one who writes the story. Writers should only write about things they believe in or things they disbelieve in and make parodys of it to but the frowny face upon it. This is important because it shows what you believe in is what you say or try and spread out among people. I could read Hitlers writtings and still nto believe in it and anyone else can read and not believe in it, because only i can say what i believe in or disbelieve in and others can't put words there for me. This is why i think that storytellers should be seperated from there reading.

Darkness always has a hand in the play

Darkness is apart of This womans life. She knows she needs to get rid of it but she doesn't want to. Every time the night comes out she goes into a loss state of mind where the world around her goes crazy but nothing is every wrong with her. Everything else has something wrong with her and the night hides what is wrong. Also night is used as if it happens over and over again and she is never prepared to face the next night or she doesn't wish to face the next day, this is shown when she hangs onto the ragged holes they leave behind at the end of darkness. THis shows that she enjoys the darkness or that the next day has started and she refuses to go on another day.

Why is Adolesence 2 Postmodern?

In Rita Dove's Adolescence-II post modernism is shown in several ways. Hyper reality is shown with the seal men, it is never stated that these men are never physically there. This would show hyper-reality because to her they would be real but to the rest of the world they would not exist. Another postmodern part of this poem is how the men Chuckle and then pat there sleek bodies. This shows how the men are celebrating disorder that they have cause with this lady. This part gives me the idea that the lady has problems with her physical appearance because she seems to be sick or hallucinating which can be a sign of her not eating and trying to slim down and the seal men represent society judging how she looks.

I LOVE TOAST!

Is our reality real, or is everything broken down into all the same things. The Snowman in Margaret Atwood's "Toast" says, "What is flour?" and so on, thus in our class discussion everything was a thing. This i found interesting because we've all been told toast is just toast no questions asked, and from there we pass on the word toast to the next generation. So this means that life is just a continuation of what the previous generation has left for us.Later Margaret's snowman says "Toast can not be explained by any rational means." This shows us that reality can not be explain after all and we have our attempts at trying to explain it but no interpretation can go deep into meaning otherwise it all ends up the same. The fact that one word can mean many different things today such as the word arrow can have three meanings shows us that our language can not accurately depict everything apart from everything else yet alone be effective so that everything has its own name. So overall language is something that we use to communicate and ideal image across but nothing exact.
