Hi. um. so I like to write songs, right? my life is, music. and books, and quotes, and poems, etc. But I'm also terrified to let anyone actually READ my songs. so maybe you guys could help? and talk to me and give me pointers? I want to
I need to
I'm thinking
Perhaps i should undo
I'll just let you down
With all those things you want from me
Unbelieving
Unaccepting
Uneverything with a positive ring
I'll just let you down
All those things you do get from me.

Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. ‘you make me feel uncivilized, daisy,’ i confessed on my second glass of corky but rather impressive claret. ‘can’t you talk about crops or something? ’ i meant nothing in particular by this remark but it was taken up in an unexpected way. ‘civilization’s going to pieces,’ broke out tom violently. ‘i’ve gotten to be a terrible pessimist about things. have you read ‘the rise of the coloured empires’ by this man goddard? ’ ‘why, no,’ i answered, rather surprised by his tone. ‘well, it’s a fine book, and everybody ought to read it. the idea is if we don’t look out the white race will be—will be utterly submerged. it’s all scientific stuff; it’s been proved.’ in this passage, tom’s ideas about race relations come off as uncivilized. what literary device is fitzgerald using here? irony personification metaphor simile
