Answer:

Sonnet 29 shows the poet at his most insecure and troubled. He feels unlucky, shamed, and fiercely jealous of those around him. What causes the poet's anguish will remain a mystery; as will the answer to whether the sonnets are autobiographical. 

However, an examination of Shakespeare’s life around the time he wrote Sonnet 29 reveals two traumatic events that may have shaped the theme of the sonnet. In 1592 the London theatres closed due to a severe outbreak of plague. Although it is possible that Shakespeare toured the outlying areas of London, it is almost certain that he left the theatre entirely during this time to work on his sonnets and narrative poems. The closing of the playhouses made it hard for Shakespeare and other actors of the day to earn a living. With plague and poverty looming it is expected that he would feel "in disgrace with fortune"

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Yes, I think people have the right to sleep in a park because the park is a public place.

Solution:

My first solution would be that jobs have better pay. Most jobs do not pay enough money to keep up with the cost of living. Pay should actually be $30 an hour to keep up, but on average it's $8.00 -$15.00 per hour. As brutal as it may sound, jobs do not need to raise their paying hours because they can hire millions of people who won't complain about the pay, and if they do up the pay, then that'll mean less money for them.

Try to learn a skill. Since learning a skill takes time and a lot of discipline, most people don't want to do it because they figure it may be too hard or too difficult, so that's why they decide to just work in physical, hard labor work for the low pay.
