I don't believe in the American Dream, because if you look outside your window, there are so many people in broken down houses, most without a house. Sleeping in cars, sleeping on a friend's couch, homeless shelters, foster care. I believe it would be possible if the rich gave more to the poor. I think those who believe in it have their heart in the right place, but to be honest, there's nothing much they can do unless they convince the government to tax the rich higher taxes, and give the extra to the poor. It is foolish to believe America will ever be what the American Dream stands for. Honestly, when somebody has money, they don't want to give it to anybody else. Keep it themselves.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Both passages deal with the same theme of the inevitability of death.
Explanation:
Both of the passages share the same theme of the inevitability of death.
"On Seeing the Elgin Stone", John Keats asserts the mortality of man and that death is something man or in any case, anyone can avoid. Likewise, William Wordsworth also emphasizes the inevitability of death in his poem "Ode on Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood". Both poets from the same Romantic period describes how things will all meet their end, even things that are believed to be immortal will eventually fade away.
I would rather have super sensitive taste because, it would be fun tasting spicy foods and sour foods. I also believe that super sensitive hearing could be very painful. I don’t think that having super sensitive tasting would be painful so that’s another reason I would prefer it.
The message of the poem Laura, written by Petrarch and translated by Morris Bishop is that of a love that can't be because of of the two implied in it is not free. Laura was the woman Petrarch fell in love with when he abandoned the idea of becoming a priest. Although he was very interested in her, she rejected him because she was already married.
Through Laura's lines a person that is considered an angel, and therefore will live forever, is unveiled before our eyes. She is described as the ideal woman, but she is also unreachable to the author. Laura is the love everyone deserves to find, but who only a few do.
