“The air on the is by turns foggy and cool and salty and warm. There are moss roses and fragrant stands of eucalyptus. You might call it beautiful, but you are a detainee, not a vacationer, and you are very far from any place that you could call home.” This quote from the story, The Writing on the Wall, helps develop the central idea of the story by explaining how the outside of America seemed inviting and perfect but on the inside, it is crucial and lonely. Immigrants were “detainees” and it would be a hard adjustment. I can see how immigrants would turn to poetry to release their emotions.

"The Pillow Book" by Sei Shonagon provides a detailed account of life in the Court of Japanese royalty during the eleventh century. The book serves as an impressive insight into the life of palace royalty, infused with lively gossip, lively observations, and also brought forth the genre of "assorted writing" in literature.
The narrator/ speaker describes what she saw on the Empress and Shigei Sha. She admits that the<em> "Shigei Sha . . . was magnificent, . . . [and] extraordinarily pretty"</em>. But to her, the Empress, with <em>"her tranquil expression, her charming features which had recently taken on a more adult cast, and her complexion which went so beautifully with her scarlet clothes, </em><u><em>I realized that no one in the world could equal her.</em></u><em>"

Being young is overrated. Being old is underrated. Being in the middle is middle-rated. The only reason people don't pass smoothly—with acceptance, dignity, and age-appproriate rewards and responsibilities—from one stage to the next is because modern societies don't value humans. They value images and synthetic versions of how people should behave and act and buy—created by the diseased reality-distortion field of the media. All people are seen as throwaway, and once they reach a certain age, they have little value. Wisdom is for naught. And even youth is nothing unless bartered in some way in a marketplace of masks and images. All people are victims of this, at least until they see it and resist. Resist being made and seen as a cartoon of a human. You are fully human and just right for your age and perfect for who you are at every moment all the time throughout your life.
