New Poem

In Praise of Pain By Heather McHugh

A brilliance takes up residence in flaws—

a brilliance all the unchipped faces of design

refuse. The wine collects its starlets

at a lip's fault, sunlight where the nicked

glass angles, and affection where the eye

is least correctable, where arrows of

unquivered light are lodged, where someone

else's eyes have come to be concerned.

For beauty's sake, assault and drive and burn

the devil from the simply perfect sun.

Demand a birthmark on the skin of love,

a tremble in the touch, in come a cry,

and let the silverware of nights be flecked,

the moon pocked to distribute more or less

indwelling alloys of its dim and shine

by nip and tuck, by chance's dance of laws.

The brightness drawn and quartered on a sheet,

the moment cracked upon a bed, will last

as if you soldered them with moon and flux.

And break the bottle of the eye to see

what lights are spun of accident and glass.

 

This poem describe about pain. During the war, people feel pain. Expecially, young soldiers who don't know the truth of war feel the pain after or during the fight. Also, when order people look at the younger people, order people feel pain because most of younger people who don't know the truth of war dies in the battlefield. In my opinon, the word pain describes war very well. Pain from lossing friends and killing another people are very pitiful. In this poem, the writer is trying to describe the beginning of the pain.

PAUL

When Paul went back to his home, he found that nobody could understand about his feeling. Also people in his town kept their unrealistic opinions about the war. Expecially Paul's father thought that war is very cool and honorable. When I first time to study in America as student, people in South Korea thought that it is very easy to study in America. But after I spended few monthes in America, I had to suffer the racisms in New Jersey. People didn't liked me becuase I was Asian and they didn't wanted to cooperate with me becuase I couldn't speak English very well. When I went back to Korea, my parents and neverhoods thought it is very easy to stay in America. And their thoughts about staying in America by themselves made me felt very uncomfortable. Paul's experiance were very fearful. When people don't understand Pual's feeling, Pual felt very uncomfortable.
