Paragraph

The difference between link and the homeless is that link became homeless by himself because he wanted to but some people on the streets were forced to be on the streets. The reasons might be because of mainly money problems but they are also forced to be on the streets with different reasons and problems. The second difference is that link begs for money to spend it on food and uses to survive, but the homeless uses to buy drugs and alcohols to forget how bad the situations are. The homeless and link has a lot of difference.

Ode to a large tuna in the market poem

The Idea of motion through out the poem

Ode to a large tuna in the market is a poem by Pablo Neruda. This paragraph is about the motion of the tuna.The poem uses metaphor to describe the motion of the fish as a missile,bullet, arrow and a sea javelin. These objects are the main keys that links to the tuna. The poem uses those objects to describe how the fast the tuna is. "This torpedo from the ocean depths, a missile that swam" a torpedo is something under water that is fast. They are all strong imageric metaphors to describe the motion of the fish. Describing the fish as a missile just paints the motion of the fish in our heads. "Only you dark bullet barreled from the depths" depths is the sea and the dark bullet is the fish in this case. The poet uses the word barreled, meaning moving in a way that is too fast that it could be almost out of control. Again the poet puts the image of the fish fast.
