Preludes

Image
Analysis: "Preludes," a short story by Daryll Delgado, discusses gender inequality in terms of infidelity and its impact on the family. In a Philippine society, it demonstrates how women can still accept their husbands who commit adultery, but it is a different story for women who commit this act. Women who cheated are judged by others as a "whore" who did not preserve their dignity as women. Body There is a hint of foreshadowing at the start of the text, as Delgado builds suspense for the readers. The first line, "A man died singing," gives us a clear indication of where the story is going, but it is designed to keep us guessing. The concept of made-up imagery is also evident in the subsequent sections, which discussed people attending a funeral for a judge whom everyone despised, but only because from the various ways Chekhov described writing in letters to his contemporaries The most famous version says, "If you hung a pistol on the wall in the fir

Motivation

ACTIVITY 2

Analysis: • First and foremost, in my opinion, the poem “NOT ALL POEMS SING” is about a person's expression and feelings. It is difficult to write a poem without prior experience and knowledge of the world. Based on the author, it sometimes became a true story. This poem is very interesting to all of us because our existences have been stuffed to the gills including both darkness and light. We seek light through our hopes and dreams, whether through our happiness, our objectives, and our achievements in life. We faced darkness because we live in a sinful world. We faced trials and problems, but those who eventually became our hopes and motivation to start up our lives. Our life is like gold; it is vital and important in the glory of Allah. Because of frustration, bad sights, and a sense of hopelessness, our souls may also become stone or rock. We are human beings, and we must remember that our lives are like poems. • The poem is written in narrative form and seems to have a free ve
