Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, a new upcoming terrorist group that has caused vigorous damage to the United States as of late, has Caused thousands of deaths amongst American and British journalist, and most recently the six different attacks in Paris which killed two hundred people. In the eyes of the frightened Americans we are worried that the desire of ISIS to become a world power and begin to enter the United States may come true. In this illustration it has many factors, the hands with tools in them, representing his picture is using the rhetorical device pathos in order to establish fear to the citizens of the United States. The puzzled and confused look in President Obama's eye is to show the concern and nervousness he has to mess with ISIS which can explode at any time. Barack Obama being the highest power and representative of the United States needs to be the highest and most knowledgeable person when it comes to foreign affairs. The mood now turns to the audience as fear rolls through our bodies and need to have all faith in our president. But as depicted in the picture the purpose is coherent, can we trust president Obama to silence the bomb?

The historically known jazz styled music has been addressed before but not like this. In the essay Bop written by Langston Hughes he identifies the colored culture and what they brought to society in the social and political standpoints. He addresses the unfair disadvantages that colored people get vs the white people. Using the Be-Bop music they made relevant as a source of credit as the white and blacks had equal opportunities and was a progressive novelist.

For this marking period I have began to read The Great Gatsby. Although the novel is very popular I have never reached out and read it. So far, it is about a boy named Nick Carraway who lived next door to Gatsby. In the beginning I can start to notice the development of Jay Gatsby through his times of a poor man going through his life searching for his first love. already filled with diverse diction and the new innovative style of how to chase the American dream.

From this website they digress on the issue presented at the republican debate this past month. The issue primarily realizes on the horrible performance by CNBC, providing inadequate and unresponsive questions. The website is a satirical essay that rants on about the horrible job that CNBC did, comparing it to how the New York Mets did in world series game 2 versus the royals. The website uses satire to continue publicize the issue of how poorly the debate was held by CNBC. This overall did not affect the voting but the candidates most likely were not credible with the outline that was created by the CNBC. The debate was looked as a form of comedy due to the irrelevant making the candidates uncomfortable and basically ruined the ideas and reforms of the republican debate.

#7 Robert Frost: The Figure a Poem Makes

            The artist and deliberate poet Robert Frost, a hard-knocks poet with ambition to change the style of poetry. In the essay The Figure a Poem Makes, the furious invective tone and the straightforward satiric style of Robert Frost illustrates the main purpose to identify the flaws in modern poetry today. Mr. Frost addresses his audience as the modern poets calling them "Sprung-rhythmists" and how they are not emotional enough towards their own writing, "No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader." Robert Frost digresses among the main differences in poetry when he was the modern and new artist versus the time period where he had to watch and observe the new trends in poetry take over the complex and emotional original style of poetry. The appeal is very credible to the reader for the main reason that Mr. Frost was a very high-end poet himself, but at the same time he is very specific with the changes and the crucial patterns that left the hearts of the modern poetry that should have always been apart of the art. The wisdom of Robert Frost to analyze the poetry as well beginning to realize as the years go on that he is soon going to give his role in poetry to a new artist one day is easier to explain in the words of the man himself, "It begins in delight and ends in wisdom.. in a clarification of life not necessarily a great clarification such as sects and cults are founded on. But in a momentary stay against confusion." The man with plenty to say has deliberated his ferocious side and exemplified his true feelings towards the new style of poetry but has also shown maturity in the fact that he has grown to analyze and guide the new and incorporate the old.

TOW#6 Triump?

Donald Trump running for election to begin with sounds silly and unnecessary. This illustration just gives a simple example of why Donald trump should not be in the office. The rhetorical device used here is irony because Donald trump is using the idea of how can President Barack Obama be our president if he isn't even from USA? But at the same time Donald Trump doesn't have the slightest bit of normal in him. This cartoon illustrates the true emotions of the people of the United states possibly having a wealthy, egotistical, nut-job as a president of a strong and imperial nation. I believe the creator of this illustration has displayed that Donald Trump may think his triumph to become president is valid but, as of right now things aren't looking to hot.

F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Crack up describes the morals that come with life and the decisions we make will always come back around to haunt us at some point. Fitzgerald uses the rhetorical device homily to tell what she believes are the true cracks in the world. Her opinions were proven to be logical but at the same time through Fitzgerald's experience as a child she was able to see the world as a opportunist and use the cracks to leap ahead and solve the issues that came her way. It was used on page 142 that life can perceived from the eye of the beholder and this method was not built from her ideas she developed this after viewing her favorite films and celebrities and just observed her specific environment. This is effective because she really wants he audience to think outside of the box and push ourselves to understand the true anomaly that comes with everyday life.
