When Atwood introduces simple images, she uses the word “edge of” before each image: “the edge of the forest,” (4) “the edge of the desert,” (5) “the edge of the receding glacier.” (9) Usually, the “edge” of somewhere is not a good place to stay and sounds dangerous, so all these “edge” images represent the volatility between newlyweds at the beginning of marriage.

would think of them for trying to be kind. In Love Kindness, by Barry H. Corey, we learn that “kindness needs to be rediscovered” (Corey xiii). It is easily seen by the way one person acts or speaks towards someone that we can tell if kindness is being radiated off of them or not. Within my reflection, I will be comparing niceness and kindness and the major difference between the two of those, as well as how we can keep our “firm center” and “soft edges”.

O no, it is an ever-fixèd mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wand'ring bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Love's not time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come. Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out ev'n to the edge of doom.

women and protests against the unfair treatment of women in relation to the law. In the start of the poem, Shange states that “every 3 minutes a woman is beaten/ every five minutes a woman is raped/ every ten minutes a lil girl is molested” (Nappy Edges, With No Immediate Cause, p. 111) showing the plight of the women’s suffering.

sleep. I get to the pond’s edge, across from the point where my tent sits. There are no trails and the boreal forest is thick with scrub pine and dead-fall. Early afternoon sun brings out the wave of deer flies; I shake my head so that my two braids might hit the little buggers in mid-air. Undeterred, one begins to chew on my shoulder blade and prickers dig into my shins. I can see my tent across the pond, 100 yards as the crow flies, probably a mile walk around the edge. I decide to take off my clothes

Shall I Compare Thee is written for Shakespeare's love, and it is more personal and cheerful. He takes apart the greatness of a summer's day and compares it to the subject of the poem, but the subject (whom we assume is a 'she') is always more divine and she is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen.
