  • For the following sentences, tell whether it is a sentence, fragment, or run-on.?

    Every year in August, my family takes a vacation to Florida.

    Our annual family reunion lasts a week and there are 25 people who usually attend.

    Which is why sometimes a week seems too long.

    The worst part is the drive to Florida which for some reason takes my dad way longer than it would if I were driving.

    The best part is the beach.

    I love to just relax by the ocean.

    Sometimes I play Frisbee or football with my cousins.

    To entertain them and make them think I’m not boring.

    We always meet lots of new people on our trip.

    I still talk to John this cool guy from Texas who was with his family.

    And if you could explain why that'd be great! thanks.

  • Can someone help me identify rhetorical devices?

    Okay I wrote this poem but I don't think I have found all of the rhetorical devices I could find. Can someone help me identify any extra devices and say where in the poem you found them? So far I have found Paradox, metaphor, repetition and possibly Juxtaposition. If it is juxtaposition it'd be great if you could let me know. Here's the poem.

    Lifted, but Fallen - Good Copy

    Lifted, but fallen

    Remembered, while Forgotten

    Motionless, yet Flinch

    Surrounded but alone

    It's dark

    I feel dirt beneath me

    Dressing my knees

    With life speeding by

    The heavy scent of rust

    Envelops my senses

    as red ribbons,

    Cascade down my porcelain skin

    My red paint coats the ground

    I lay in a pool of remembrance

    I shape my picture

    That can't form together

    The rain drops from heavens

    Down my boney cheek

    Dripping down my boyish face

    Erasing my picture

    My basin tips over

    Colour fills the ground

    No more red

    Only black

    I can taste the pain

    Midnight strikes,

    The last twelve I see

    I betrayed my picture

    Thanks to anyone that can help me out!!

  • Can I charge him with assault?

    I've had history in the past with this guy, I honestly have never done anything to him and I asked what I did to make him have so much spite towards me and he just told me to shut up. I'm assuming he hates me because I used to be really into drugs and got expelled but now I'm clean. He always picks on me at parties saying he could beat me up. So I was at another party last night and I was really drunk and there were a pair of shoes that were really similar to mine and mistakenly thinking they were mine I put them on. It turns out those were his shoes. Out of no where he came out and pushed me to the ground and ripped off his shoes and said he would beat me up if there wernt people around. This is really bugging me and I feel like this is never gonna stop. I don't even want money out of this I just want to get a restraining order or something. I'm not a small guy either he's just bigger, but I just don't want to degrade myself and start fighting again because I have changed my morals. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it.

  • What does the poem "Robert Scarlett's song" mean and can you list any rhetorical devices you see?

    I've known the toil of three score years

    And built the arks of damned and dears,

    And here I build unto this day;

    O' how much longer can I stay?

    I've known the lot of them from Birth,

    Have seen their tears, have heard their mirth,

    Have heard a maiden wail with child

    And each was born to be exiled —

    Both king and knave; to common end

    Do all the sons of Adam tend

    Where mire and mitre come to Blend —

    We're wanderin’, we're wanderin'.

    Four horsemen ride both day and night

    And every living soul indict.

    From John o' Groats unto Lands End

    They take what man cannot defend,

    And own all here and yet to come --

    They fill the whole and are the sum.

    And by their work I'm sore annoyed

    Though all hours of the day employed.

    I pant and grunt in mortal pain,

    I feel my vital forces wane

    But still I hear them o'er the plain

    Come thunderin', come thunderin'.

    I, shoulder-deep in dirt and death,

    Strain gutter-gasped wit' failin' breath;

    Alas, the farrier works by moon'

    To make as one my curse and boon.

    So on I delve, toss up a bone

    And ken one day 'twill be my own —

    What Mother fathers, Father tends,

    Who counts at last the gold he spends.

    And so I toil 'sif in a spell

    Though I have heard the evening bell,

    Each shovel one foot nearer hell —

    I'm ponderin', I'm ponderin'.

    And so tonight, when earth is cold,

    I know the chill, and I am old.

    I know that soon my labor's done,

    My tine is past, my glass is run.

    The thought that makes me heave in fright

    -- That makes the chill run deep tonight --

    Is that this final resting place

    I make could mark my dire disgrace.

    Aye, sixteen hooves forever pound

    And o'er my roof their chord resound;

    How could I know a sleep profound?

    I'm wonderin', I'm wonderin'.

  • What does my dream mean?

    my whole family burned in a fire but it wasn’t my house and I found out and everyone in the town new and felt bad for me. I was sitting on the side of the curb and a conjoined bicycle with 5 people came by and asked if I wanted to come on because he was missing a partner and felt bad for me and knew what happened. I said no at first and was hesitant but said yes a little bit latter. Im not sure if this was before or after the part with me going on the bike but I attempted to kill myself but couldn’t do it and a girl started yelling at me to stop. I then started yelling and crying and hid in a store because the cops were coming looking for me and I hid in a shop with a window where I think a man was inside but he didn’t see me. Latter in the dream I was looking for a girl named Cynthia and I was trying to get pity sex from her and I went in her house. It then switched to a weird state in the dream where I turned in to Justin bieber or I saw him talking I don’t think I was him the entire dream. And he was saying how its not okay about my family dying acting as if it really happened to him.

    Im really not sure what this means but i feel like it means something can someone please share some analogy on this?
