I need help with my essay? Edgar Allen Poe?

I really need help with my essay, it's kind of long. Can you please tell me what you think the them of it is? I was trying to write similar to Edgar Allen Poe once you read it youll know, thanks!





September 16, 2004, what a terrible day it was; the day I lost my sanity. On September 16, unlike any other day, I woke up feeling happy; a strange happiness I’ve never felt before, I thought it was a sign that my life was finally going to turn around, perhaps a sign that everything was going to change. After suffering through the divorce, loosing my kids, and my job; maybe the interview I had for a teaching position in Addison Trail would living things up; however, I was dead wrong. I arrived at the school full of hope, knowing that this was my last chance, I tried to cheer myself up. As I arrived, I glanced around observed my surroundings in order to see what I was getting myself into. I was disgusted by the sight, I saw tampons all over, soiled underwear, and other unthinkables. However, I continued on trying to see the lighter side of my situation and from out of nowhere, anger started coursing throughout my body, like a venomous poison, it was sickening and I knew it was a sign, a few moments later I fainted. I woke up 15 minutes later and rushed into the school realizing that I was late for my interview. I rushed to the deans office of the school, but the principle said he wouldn’t accept me, it was too late. I quickly tried to explain my situation, but he couldn’t understand. I just stood there for a couple of seconds in silence. That’s when I blacked out, something snapped. Without realizing, I punched him in the mouth, and kicked him in the stomach. You should’ve seen the joy I felt. You should’ve heard the way he sounded as blood gushed out of his mouth, the way he moaned from the excruciating pain, it was priceless. However, I quickly left the scene yelling obscenities and screeching at the top of my voice. I thought to myself, why should I be the only unhappy one? They deserve to be unhappy and I decided to spread my misery for everyone else. I ran throughout the school, and started injuring those around me. Like the spadix of a flower, it was apparent I had gone mad and I loved it. My first victems were to girls who were blabbering about their frizzy hair, what a stupid topic to talk about, I thought to myself. Without thinking, I grabbed them by the hair and yelled, “Frizzy hair, what a ridiculous subject....” Next thing I knew, I took hold of their hair and threw them against a wall. It was one of the best moment of my life, how I laughed as their scalp bled and as they screamed to their God. I yelled to them, “There is no God, you have me to deal with, where’s your God now!” Quickly I left the scene and looked for my next victim. Next, I approached a freaky pupil listening to music and I punched him and kicked him down and I yelled “Why are you looking at me, go to hell, I don’t need all of you, you’re all dim-witted morons, your as mawkish as your school, all of you are pathetic,” I yelled to the witnesses and sought refuge among the school. I hated everyone, included these students who had nothing to me, I just hated them. Quickly, I armed myself with anything I could find, staples, scissors, you name it. I was determined to seek my revenge against an unforgiving society and I planned on doing it. I quickly ran throughout the school. My next crime was pushing a fat kid down the stairs, how I laughed at the way he flabbed his arms as he tumbled down the stairs, the way blood gushed out of his wound similar to how water gushes out of a geyser, it was a spectacular sight! People yelled at me, but did nothing to stop me. “Pass the clam rod, sir,” yelled a girl in Polish, or at least I thought she was saying that, but I didn’t care, I approached her and smacked her in the face and stabbed her with a pencil. I threw everything I could find to these people I didn’t even know, from desks to maple leaf decorations, I didn’t care what I threw as long as they hurt them. Suddenly, in my moment of craze I remember a quote from my father and what he used to say to me, “Forfeit the game before somebody else takes you out of the frame, puts your name to shame, covers up to your face, you can’t run the race, the pace is too fast, it just won’t last.” I snapped out of my craze for an instance and jumped out a window, finally I would experience my end. THE END


Sincerely,

I need help with my essay? Edgar Allen Poe?
You hit the nail on the Head, sounds just like something EAP would write. Wild , weird, demented....I give you an A+++++
Reply:Is this for school? You write alot about school violence, they make take this the wrong way, and land you in alot of trouble...It was good though....
Reply:I think it is bery much like Poe's writing with a modern twist. There are some spelling errors, but those are fixable. Overall it is a very good piece of writing.
Reply:dude long story but i think its more like Jason or nightmare on elm street Poe was more subtle in his horror it is in the eyes.
Reply:What kind of help do you want? Do you want feedback on the content or help proofreading it (there are a lot of spelling errors).
Reply:I thought it was very well-written. I just read the Tell Tale Heart recentley and I thought the writing style was very similar to it.





I just hope you're not planning to do/already did it!





But you should get put some paragraph spacing in there. Minor spelling errors.





But you might want to make sure it doesn't offend anyone (pushed a fat kid down the stairs, there is no God, etc.)





Other than that, it rocks. :D

Where can i find praying mantis ?

I like it very much, but also Scorpions which i don't need it coz it's deadly.. but where can i find praying mantis , before that , sometimes i see a praying mantis on the top of the wall.. just look at us and look follow where we go... I can't catch it coz it's too high , can i find it in my garden ? it's a bit hard coz it's the same colour , hard to see but i'm really worry that the Hornet always on the flower.. it's large , today when i'm searching praying mantis , the hornet is about to sting me :( please tell me how, easily to find a praying mantis , and tell me is it guilty to keep a praying mantis or other insects as pet ? can i keep them in an aquarium ? i don't have anything larger to keep praying mantis .. help.. thanks!

Where can i find praying mantis ?
the insect church
Reply:I'd always recommend letting any kind of wild animal stay in the wild. Praying Mantis are very good for your garden and will eat tons of pests... Some of them can be found in gardens. They are pretty secretive and hard to find... especially in winter...
Reply:Domestic preying mantises can be purchased online. Do a google search. They are quite easy to look after.





EDIT: A fair sized aquarium is fine but make sure you have the right stuff to take care of it as well as a tank. Don't feed it wild insects as this food source is unreliable and carries a risk of contamination, buy store-bought crickets. Don't capture a wild mantis, buy a captive bred one. Here in the UK they are only about £5 or $10.

ROFL








For you guys who won't lsiten to a woman because she is too stupid


to know ANYTHING!





%26gt;%26gt; In a Chicago hospital, a gentleman had made several attempts to get into


the men's restroom, but it had always been occupied.





A nurse noticed his predicament.


Sir, she said " You may use the ladies room if you promise not to


touch any of the buttons on the wall."





He did what he needed to, and as he sat there he noticed the buttons he had promised not to touch.


Each button was identified by letters: WW, WA, PP, and a red one


labeled ATR.





Who would know if he touched them?


He couldn't resist.. He pushed WW. warm water was sprayed gently upon his bottom.


What a nice felling, he thought. Men restrooms don't have nice things likethis.





Anticipating greater pleasure, he pushed the WA button. Warm


air replaced the warm water, gently drying his underside.!





When this stopped, he pushed the PP button. A large powder puff caressed his bottom adding a fragile scent of spring flower to this unbelievable pleasure





The ladies restroom was more than a restroom, it is tender loving pleasure.


When the powder puff completed its pleasure, he couldn't wait to push the ATR button which he knew would be supreme ecstasy.





Next thing he knew he opened his eyes, he was in a hospital bed, and a nurse was staring down at him.





"What happened?" he exclaimed. The last thing I remember was pushing the ATR button.


"The button ATR is an Automatic Tampon Remover. Your penis is under your pillow."

How would you interpret this passage?

38. In the Gold Room: a Harmony


(poem by Oscar Wilde)








HER ivory hands on the ivory keys


Strayed in a fitful fantasy,


Like the silver gleam when the poplar trees


Rustle their pale leaves listlessly,


Or the drifting foam of a restless sea 5


When the waves show their teeth in the flying breeze.





Her gold hair fell on the wall of gold


Like the delicate gossamer tangles spun


On the burnished disk of the marigold,


Or the sun-flower turning to meet the sun 10


When the gloom of the jealous night is done,


And the spear of the lily is aureoled.





And her sweet red lips on these lips of mine


Burned like the ruby fire set


In the swinging lamp of a crimson shrine, 15


Or the bleeding wounds of the pomegranate,


Or the heart of the lotus drenched and wet


With the spilt-out blood of the rose-red wine.

How would you interpret this passage?
I love Oscar Wilde, he is not just some wierd *** author, first of all. He loves this woman so much he compares her to god's other creations and he cant just choose one. He loves watching her play the piano, he thinks her hand are very graceful, he loves the waves and color of her hair and the color of her lips and of course kissing them. Oh, to be loved by such a man, she must have been very beautiful.
Reply:She is good at playing the piano and is a beautiful blonde with pretty red lips..that it!!
Reply:chick plays piano, weird-a$$ author making an analogy of that to w/e he said in first section....





her hair is long.....like some flowers and/ or vines....again with the analogies.....





lips analogy..........kissing.....





pretty much it


well obviously this guy likes nature, considering all the fruity analogies with nature.
Reply:It uses a lot of visual references to make comparisons.





Mr. Wilde is describing vividly beautiful sights, and comparing them with a lady he loves. The number of colors and images in the poem, are meant to project the images to the reader's mind.





The poem seems to suggest, that the woman it mentions, is as great to the author as those pleasant images.





I think Oscar is just explaining his love for a woman through the use of beautiful imagery.
Reply:The first stanza describes her piano playing as the wild rustling of nature,


The second describes her hair as the sharpest brightest gold


and the third describes kissing her, warm, wet, and red

Name of decorative things on mirror screws?

Does anyone know the name of those decorative flower type things that go around the base of the screw that holds a bathroom mirror to the wall. They are very old fashioned looking - picture your grandmas bathroom. And no I don't mean that clip that can be used instead to hold up a mirror. These things are used with screws.

Name of decorative things on mirror screws?
either decorative washers like bert said or they may be called grommets ?
Reply:Sounds like a fancy version of a drywall anchor. Most screws need to have something solid to anchor to. When a stud is not handy, using a drywall anchor gives a screw a good anchor point to hold up whatever needs to be on the wall.





I bought a package of 20 for around $8 dollars about a month ago... real handy they are!
Reply:I believe they are called decorative washers.
Reply:I believe they are called rosettes...
Reply:roeb is right, rosettes. although now they have many different styles, even ones that have covers over the screw heads to match the whole rosette
