Poetry Assignment # 1



(Number One)
-The Laughing Heart By Charles Bukowski
(Number Two) 
-The irony is that throughout the commercial the author's basically saying "your life is your life," but how can we make our own decisions in life if we're being told what to choose? 
(Number Three) 
-I think it does reflect the reputation of the author because the poem reflects the freedom a person choose to have. Bukowcki's character showed someone who overcame a lot, and by speaking through his heart his words can be seen as encouraging. 
(Number Four) 
-I first read through the comments then Googled the poem written by Charles Bukowski (Source: http://milan-poetry.blogspot.com/2007/03/laughing-heart-charles-bukowski.html)
-I eventually researched Bukowski himself and found a few biography's, picking apart the information I needed for this post.
