Dying Is аn аrt, like everything else. I dо it exceptiоnаlly well. I dо it so it feels like hell. I do it so it feels real. I guess you could say I’ve a call. It’s easy enough to do it in a cell. It’s easy enough to do it and stay put. It’s the theatrical Comeback in broad day To the same place, the same face, the same brute Amused shout: ‘A miracle!’ That knocks me out. There is a charge For the eyeing of my scars, there is a charge For the hearing of my heart—— It really goes. And there is a charge, a very large charge For a word or a touch Or a bit of blood Or a piece of my hair or my clothes. So, so, Herr Doktor. So, Herr Enemy. I am your opus, I am your valuable, The pure gold baby That melts to a shriek. I turn and burn. Do not think I underestimate your great concern. Ash, ash— You poke and stir. Flesh, bone, there is nothing there—— A cake of soap, A wedding ring, A gold filling. Herr God, Herr Lucifer Beware Beware. Out of the ash I rise with my red hair And I eat men like air.

1. Cоmpаre аnd cоntrаst twо individuals conflict with their society in the texts that we have read since test 1. These can be two characters within the same work or characters from separate works. Some things you might consider are: Does society or the individual determine the characters' fate? Is one character more successful at dealing with their society than the other? Do the characters make their decisions based on tradition or their own free will? This is NOT a checklist, but some ideas for you to start your brainstorming. You must come up with your own thesis and prove it throughout the course of your essay. 2. A famous writer once said, "Modern stories are about what the protagonist wants and what he/she is willing to do to get it." In your essay, analyze what one of the characters in one of the works we have read since test 1 wants and how their desire to get it affects the narrative. In your analysis, consider: · How the character's desire affects the events in the story · Is the character successful? How does that change the way you view the story? · How does this desire show you something about the human condition? This is NOT a checklist, but some ideas for you to start your brainstorming. You must come up with your own thesis and prove it throughout the course of your essay. 3. Discuss the role that destiny plays in one of the works that we have read since test 1. Examine how destiny affects the plot, actions of the characters, and themes of one of the works we have read. In your essay, consider the following: · Is the destiny of the primary character set out by a higher power or is it ruled by the decisions of the character? · Does destiny create a deeper meaning for the text? · How does the destiny of the main character affect the other characters in the story? This is NOT a checklist, but some ideas for you to start your brainstorming. You must come up with your own thesis and prove it throughout the course of your essay.
