What two words or phrases in this excerpt from "Thanatopsis" by William Cullen Bryant best help to reveal the meaning of the wor

d blight as it is used in the poem?
She has a voice of gladness, and a smile
And eloquence of beauty, and she glides
Into his darker musings, with a mild
And healing sympathy, that steals away
Their sharpness, ere he is aware. When thoughts
Of the last bitter hour come like a blight
Over thy spirit, and sad images
Of the stern agony, and shroud, and pall.
And breathless darkness, and the narrow house,
Make thee to shudder, and grow sick at heart--
Go forth, under the open sky, and list
To Nature's teachings,

BartSMP [9]
I think reality television is harming our communities because of their misleading views on society; thus, why many individuals become self conscious of their life altogether it is stable. Reality television puts out a false image of succession which in tern harms our self confidence and happiness in life. If I could be in any reality show I would be in my 600 pound life and, I would chose this because I would get to receive money, attention, and praise from others around me. Although I would become rich and famous my relationships with others would most likely be ruined. While I would never actually like to be in a reality television show, I would call it “The Teachings of Professional Procrastinators”, and the show would show viewers how to procrastinate on a daily basis ending with the best television shows to become distracted with.

Here's a little poem I learned that I think will help you too:)!
