3-5 Snyder themes

Without is talking of humans being able to have the power to make sacrifices or not to help their power grow. Humans believe that they are the more dominate species so they have the power of what to do. Humans should take their power and better this world instead of destroy it.

I went into the Maverick Bar speaks of how society needs to accept you. He said he left his earring in the car so I feel as if he didn't want to be judged. In today's world it is about social acceptance. People need to stop worrying about others and just join together and fight for a green Earth.

Dusty Braces is talking about how our ancestors started off corrupting the world and as time goes on generations continue to follow their ancestors. Humans learn by watching what has already been done. For example, if your parents litter you may also grow up to litter. In society today if our generation can make a change to better this world it should be done.

  1. Chelsi, your analysis of these three themes is really interesting. When I read through these poems, I got the same general ideas. I really liked your analysis of the theme in "Dusty Braces", and I thought it seemed like he was writing a letter to his ancestors about how they ruined the world. That may have been why he ended it with “-your sea roving tree hearted son.” You explained all the poems really well and I enjoyed reading each of them.
