Where I'm From
I am from clothespins,
from Clorox and carbon-tetrachloride.
I am from the dirt under the back porch.
(Black, glistening,
it tasted like beets.)
I am from the forsythia bush
the Dutch elm
whose long-gone limbs I remember
as if they were my own.

I'm from fudge and eyeglasses,
from Imogene and Alafair.
I'm from the know-it-alls
and the pass-it-ons,
from Perk up! and Pipe down!
I'm from He restoreth my soul
with a cottonball lamb
and ten verses I can say myself.

I'm from Artemus and Billie's Branch,
fried corn and strong coffee.
From the finger my grandfather lost
to the auger,
the eye my father shut to keep his sight.

Under my bed was a dress box
spilling old pictures,
a sift of lost faces
to drift beneath my dreams.
I am from those moments--
snapped before I budded --
leaf-fall from the family tree.

I was just wondering what are some of the activities/events that seniors (or really just the school in general) put on. I am asking because our school just finished our big Thanksgiving Giving and Senior Auction but until Prom there isn't much else going on. I would just like suggestions so that we could possibly incoorporate them into our school. Also, do you have any ideas for a Senior trip?

I'm aquantances with a mentally challanged guy. He's not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, but then he's not totally 'fried' or whatever you want to call it.

He mutilates himself, mostly with knives, drinks heavily, I think he smokes pot sometimes which is probably the only reason he's in special ed, and he also continuously threatens suicide, threatens to shoot up the school and has held a knife to his step dads throat.

I think over all, the guy is just mentally unstable. But legally, he is considered mentally challanged/retarded, but last a few weeks ago, he just started going on and on about him wanting his girlfriend (which is also considered mentally challanged) to have his baby, and he's 17, just got his first job, which is minimum wage, and it doesn't look like he's graduating soon.

I hate to say it, because I'm normally understanding of differences, but I really don't like the idea of people considered mentally challanged having kids. What is your opinion?

Through my efforts, California migrant farm workers received health benefits, the right to collective bargaining, and, between 1964 and 1980, a 70 percent increase in wages. As founder and president of the United Farm Workers Union, I adopted a strategy of economic boycotts to keep the plight of migrant workers in the public eye. What is my name, and how and when did I die?

1)Unflinching honesty in the face of facts is a recurrent theme in Frost's nature poetry

2)The very fact that the speaker can recognize in the landscape the full extent of his loneliness shows the mind's capacity for courage.

3)In both his nature poems and his pastorals the poet portrays average human experience by projecting it into a world remote and distinct.


4)A final aspect of the nature poetry and one of the most important is Frost's strong tendency to personification. The device is common enough in poems about nature, and most readers are likely to take an unfavorable view of it. It suggests a sentimental pantheism or oversimple allegorizing. Frost's personifications, however, are different from those to which the Romantics have accustomed us. Their personifications generally take the form of brief metaphor, while his are nearly always extended analogies
