1 AnswerOther - Careers & Employment7 years agoHow would you improve the structure/wording of this thesis statement?
Hi there :)
I'm having some difficulties with my main thesis statement for a history essay im writing on the congress of vienna of 1815. this is my rough version of the thesis statement:
Due to their inability to collectively follow diplomatic procedure, their poor treatment of the individual nationalities subject to their geopolitical arrangements, and their use of military intervention to settle disputes, the Great Powers of Britain, Russia, Austria, Prussia, and eventually France in 1818, failed to establish any long-term balance of power and thus struggled continuously to maintain peace throughout the continent as well as amongst themselves.
If anyone could edit it for me or give me some suggestions on the structure and wording that would be much appreciated. thanks! :)

1 AnswerHistory7 years agowhat literary device is used in this poem?
I'm unsure of the literary device used in the second paragraph , so the help is appreciated.
I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I watered it in fears,
Night and morning with my tears;
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine.
And he knew that it was mine,
And into my garden stole
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

2 AnswersOther - Arts & Humanities7 years agoWould this be considered a ballad?
***This some poetry I'm writing for my english assignment and I'm not quite sure whether it has the characteristics of a ballad. If not, what would need to be added/changed in general to make it so? If it is, how does it sound? It's based on Alexandre Manette from Charles Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities.***
A man, doctor, husband, and soon a father.
Two rich men in need, why wouldn’t he bother?
A witness, he let go a life not yet due,
He became the victim of his own virtue.
Imprisoned, the product of privilege abused,
Buried for eighteen years, his soul beyond bruised.
Confined to his dark cell he began to write,
Detailing the horrors he’d seen that last night.
As abrupt his confinement was his release,
He was pulled from the depts., but not in one piece.
Not knowing what to do he picked up a shoe,
Until the girl’s golden hair came into view.
She was his beacon in the ever-rising sea,
Willingly fishing out the scattered debris,
As delicate as thread but as strong as gold.
Her support alone, an anchor for him to hold.
They left France behind them to start life anew,
In England, friends and family in his view.
But still he could smell the old leather shoe.
He could hear the echoing footsteps and he knew.
He kept silent as the revolution drew near.
Every minute that passed was, for him, a year.
The doctor took his seat in purgatory,
Even himself unsure of his own story.
When her husband faced his demise,
He watched the light fade from her eyes,
And in that moment, that same light left his heart,
Leaving him no choice, prompting him to depart.
No longer a prisoner he saw his chance,
His presence alone would make the rebels dance.
He walked through the ragging storm for his daughter,
Separate from the shadow and the slaughter.
1 AnswerPoetry7 years agoPain to take deep breaths?
Every morning (and sometimes during the day) I have been experiencing nauseating chest pains whenever I try to breath deeply. It also feels like someone is ringing out my trachea. :( Each day it gets worse and I have no idea what could possibly be wrong.
(Before you go making harsh comments, the public health care system in my town is so messed up and disorganized that I won't be able to get a doctor's appointment until March, and even then that's only basic testing.) I'm posting on this website to get at least some insight.
2 AnswersRespiratory Diseases7 years agoDoes this poetry make sense?
So for English class we had to write sonnets. I may be good at essays, but when it comes to creative writing, I’m basically at the equivalent of being tone deaf.
Anyways, here is what I wrote. I’d really appreciate the feedback before I have to hand it in.
I am tree, uprooted by the storm,
Fallen in a forest, yet all alone.
Beaten, reduced to this broken form.
I wasn’t falling in love, I was thrown.
I am of rotted flesh and fragile bone,
A hollowed shell where emotions used to be.
Cut me with words, unable to atone,
Salt stings open wounds, your voice a sea.
Now a flame, fueled by liquid hate,
I deliver a last whim of strength.
Reducing you to ash, a suitable fate.
My sweet revenge is the final length.
I may have earned the final breath,
Only to be restored by your death.
1 AnswerPoetry8 years agoHow can I improve this sonnet?
For an English assignment, we have to write a sonnet on anything we want to. I couldn't really think of a personal or complex subject but this is what I've come up with so far. ... Any comments or advice is much appreciated.
" I am a tree, uprooted by the storm.
Ageless, yet rotting from the inside out.
Faced with disaster, unable to reform.
My dead spirit, this world can live without.
I am a flame, fueled by your liquid hate.
Providing for those around me, never myself.
Reduced to ash, what a suitable state.
For this, you can take pride in oneself.
I am flesh, a shell where emotions used to be.
Cut with with words, they are more than enough.
If salt stings an open wound, your voice a ragging sea.
I surrender, no need to be rough.
I am nothing and everything at once. "
I know I'm missing the last lines, but it's difficult to find something that rhymes with 'once'.

It started in winter of last year when i began to take a bit of medication for my social anxiety and has gotten so much worse ever since. basically, everyday, every waking minute, i feel like i have the flu, a fever and a massive headache as well as terrible digestion and continuous episodes where it feels like im being stabbed between the lungs and the heart. but generally the important stuff is centered around my head and throat. my doctor's haven't done much tested, except for blood-and there doesn't seem to be much wrong there except an iron deficiency-which i am also being treated for. anyways, i can't remember what it feels like to be healthy. i can rarely stay awake for more than 3 hours and can rarely sleep for more than 4 hours at time. i'm reaching out to see if anyone has some type of insight into what may be the issue.
