Run Gecko

Run Gecko Run

Snow falls gently
Melting as touches the ground
Run gecko run.

My haiku is about how its the beginning of winter. The snow symbolizes winter however the gecko symbolizes summer. Snow is to a gecko like black is to white. The snow melting shows that it is still warm which means it is Autumn. Run gecko run symbolizes the absolute end of summer. In conclusion I think this poem shows three seasons in one: Summer, Autumn and Winter.

Character

Man on the top of the hill in Star Wars is an example of a flat character.

The old lady in The Landlady first seems like a caricature but near the end you see that she is a archetype and at the end she has a round character.

CHARACTER

Flat
-Caricature (1 characteristic) Over the top characteristic
-Archetype (2-3 characteristics)
Round
Growing Character = change


TYPE OF CONFLICTS
Man vs. Man
Man vs. Nature
Man vs. Technology
Man vs. Self
Man vs. Society

Billy
Polite/honest
Trusting
Curious
Naive/innocent

Landlady
Secretive
Sweet
Manipulating

The Landlady is to Billy as the venus flytrap is to a fly.

Imagist and Symbolic poems

The Rainbow

My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So
was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is the father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.


The big idea of the poem is that he wants to feel the same way throughout his whole life.

Yellow- Jump shift
Green- Repetition 
Purple- Metaphor 


In a station of a metro

The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bough.


It is short becuase the doors open for a bit and then and then they close fast

The black bough symbolizes the platform


Plot 101 (The Movie)

Disruption
R2D2

Conflicts
-Leia vs. Darth Vader
-Luke vs. Sand People
-Luke vs. Darth Vader
-
-

Using half a credit is symbolized that it very little because it is half.

Man vs. Man
Man vs. Society
Man vs. Technology
Man vs. Self
Man vs.Nature

Should ray sell BB8
Rey running away
Rey presses the wrong buttons and releases monsters
Rey picking up light saber and brings back memories
Rey vs. Darth Vader resisting his powers

Light saber- symbol

They refer to Star Wars as an ticket rides

Denouement
