Concrete poetry- Poetry in which the meaning or effect is conveyed partly or wholly by visual means, using patterns of words or letters or other symbols.

This is suppose to be giving the reader a visual effect. The line is suppose to be the horizon, and the words are suppose to be an unbroken line of trees.
Question about short story:
In the story Boys and Girls, the narrator tries to escape the gender role the other characters are trying to impose on her. Does she succeed or fail? Please Discuss.
The narrator tries to escape the gender role in the story Boys and Girls. She tries very hard, and for awhile I think that she was overcoming it, but in the end I think she ended up feeling like nothing she does is going to make difference that she don't want to be only thought of as a girl, but I think that just because she don't escape the way people think about her and in the end even the way she thinks of herself, she still doesn't stop doing the things that she loves to do.
