Answer:

I think it depends. What are you lying about? Who are you lying to? Are you actually convincing? I think its fine to lie to someone if it could hurt them. Then again, if they find out that you were lying it can make the situation worse. Sometimes honesty is the best choice. Even if it may hurt their feelings, they will most likely be happy you told the truth. If its something serious, I wouldn't lie about it. But if its something little, sure, why not.

Answer:

I believe there are many places in where you can lie. While I'm not saying its right lying is always a useful skill to have when you are in a pinch. However, the best place where you should NOT lie would be with your friends and family. (well like 95% of the time)

What feeling is Robert Bly trying to portray in his short poem "Counting Small-Boned Bodies"? What is he trying to express or sa
Lostsunrise [7]

In an essay published in 1961, Robert Kelly coined the term "deep image" in reference to a new movement in American poetry. Ironically, the term grew in popularity despite the critical disapproval of it by the group's leading theorist and spokesperson, Robert Bly. Speaking with Ekbert Faas in 1974, Bly explains that the term deep image "suggests a geographical location in the psyche," rather than, as Bly prefers, a notion of the poetic image which involves psychic energy and movement (TM 259).1 In a later interview, Bly states:

Let's imagine a poem as if it were an animal. When animals run, they have considerable flowing rhythms. Also they have bodies. An image is simply a body where psychic energy is free to move around. Psychic energy can't move well in a non-image statement. (180)

Such vague and metaphorical theoretical statements are characteristic of Bly, who seems reluctant to speak about technique in conventional terms. Although the group's poetry is based on the image, nowhere has Bly set down a clear definition of the image or anything resembling a manifesto of technique. And unlike other "upstart" groups writing in the shadow of Pound and Eliot, the deep image poets-including Bly, Louis Simpson, William Stafford, and James Wright-lacked the equivalent of the Black Mountain group's "Projective Verse," or even, as in the Beats' "Howl," a central important poem which critics could use as a common point of reference. This essay, then, attempts to shed some light on the mystery surrounding the deep image aesthetic. It traces the theory and practice of Robert Bly's poetic image through the greater part of his literary career thus far.

How does this final stanza of ah are you digging on my grave use irony to disappoint the speakers expectation?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

It uses irony to show that despite her expectation of being missed by someone, no one seemed to have the same sentiment. rather, she found that her dog was the one digging, not because he missed her but to bury his bone. He also added that he had forgotten she was buried there.

Explanation:

The final stanza of the poem <em>"Oh, Are You Digging On My Grave?"</em> by Thomas Hardy shows a dead woman expecting someone would remember her. The lines goes like this-

<u><em>"Mistress, I dug upon your grave </em></u>

<u><em>To bury a bone, in case </em></u>

<u><em>I should be hungry near this spot </em></u>

<u><em>When passing on my daily trot. </em></u>

<u><em>I am sorry, but I quite forgot </em></u>

<u><em>It was your resting-place."</em></u>

She heard someone digging her grave and then she began guessing who that would be, her husband 'who must have missed her' or her family or even her enemy. But it was none of them but rather her dog. Even then, she was happy to know that at least someone remembered her. Ironically, the dog wasn't there for her but rather to hide his bone in case he gets hungry on his walks. This irony in the scene's reality and the narrator's expectations shows how she must have been missed by someone. But it was nobody except her dog who wants to hide his bone not because he felt anything for her. Not only that, he also mentioned that he had quite forgotten that she was buried there.
