  1. Depression

  2. The wish by Alexander Pushkin • I shed my tears; my tears – my consolation;And I am silent; my murmur is dead,My soul, sunk in a depression’s shade,Hides in its depths the bitter exultation.I don’t deplore my passing dream of life --Vanish in dark, the empty apparition!I care only for my love’s infliction,And let me die, but only die in love! I enjoyed this poem because of the word choice and the rhythm of it.

  3. Travels with John Hunter by Les Murray • This poem has one the best verses ever • Describes his liver failure and his struggles in the hospital • “when we stop feeding them the earth. I had, it did seem, rehearsed the private office of the grave, ceased excreting, made corpse gases “

  4. I felt a funeral in my brain by Emily Dickson • Uses the beating of drums to show the person losing care and emotion • At the end she seems to die. I think this is metaphorical of loss of hope and happiness

  5. The reason I chose the subject I did • For the reason of standing out • Pure art comes from pure pain
