/ Does it dry” (1-2) and “syrupy sweet” (7), and his use of the repetition of the question “Does it…” in lines 2 and 6 as well as his irregular rhyme scheme and rhythmic quality cause the reader to become frustrated, as they are driven forward only to fall into a pattern almost recognizable. In the last line, Hughes uses one final question and violent language to underline the importance of the fact that these dreams must not be put aside. The inherent power in the dreams will “explode”
He is complicit in Dwight’s attempt to lure Rosemary; he finds that they are too deeply entwined to stop the prevent carnage. Dwight’s attempts to “improve” Toby and turn him into a “man”, highlight the extreme vulnerability and sense of powerlessness that pervade many of the surrogate father figures in the novel. Dwight constantly sets him up for ridicule. For example, he makes him “shuck” horse chestnuts without gloves, which is an incredibly difficult task. His fingers become covered with a yellow stain and people think that he is hygienically unclean.
The narrator explains in the first line that he “may cease to be” and rushes to include he is afraid to die “before [his] pen has glean’d [his] teeming brain”. It almost seems as though Keats was unable to fit his ideas neatly into spaced lines, with punctuation marks because he is afraid to lose valuable time while he is still living. In Longfellow’s poem, however, pauses, punctuation and composition of multiple sentences produce a relaxed tone and overall feel of the poem. The poem is filled with caesuras that decrease the entire speed of the poem. “Half of my life is gone,” the comma allows for a pause and a deep breath to continue on to say “and I have let the years slip from me”.

It also reflects his compunction for neglect of his education.
MIGRANT HOSTEL A tone of instability and insecurity is set within the first stanza where the accumulation of the nouns “comings and goings”, “arrivals” and “sudden departures” suggests a sense of chaos and highlights the lack of stability within the poet's life. The use of enjambment of “wondering/ who would be coming next” allows the emphasis to fall heavily on “who”, illustrating the transient nature of the hostel environment and putting emphasis on the uncertainty of who is to arrive next. This constant change becomes unsettling and prevents the poet from finding a place of belonging and further hindering his self-identity, leaving him lost and confused. The physical and emotional divisions set up by different nationalities is further
He notices himself sitting through an entire movie where the picture is out of focus, constantly annoyed by this but sits tree hoping someone else would complain rather than complaining himself. Also, he is shocked that he would allow himself to stay quiet when he had to ask a waitress for a glass of milk three times then no longer needing it once it finally did arrive.

Gene feels guilty for losing himself, as a child would, when throwing a temper-tantrum. He does not mean to hurt people, especially the ones he cares for, he just does not know any better. Gene’s instincts kick in when he feels threatened, and he always regrets when they do.

Later on in the novel “Lennie looked up helplessly at George, and then he got up and tried to retreat.” When Steinbeck writes “Lennie looked helplessly at George” implies that Lennie always looks to George for attention and help when things go wrong in his life. All these quotes show us that George and Lennie have a very fragile relationship as Lennie depends heavily on the advice and guidance of George whereas George seems to want his own freedom from Lennie and sees him as a burden on his
