Throughout the poem, he shows his concern about how time is running out between the two of them by the use of convincing and persuasive words. I the first two line of the poem, â€Å"Had we but world enough and time, This coyness, Lady were no crime† ,He says this to explain to the mistress that if they did have time, he wouldn’t care about her shyness and by the use of words like â€Å"had† and â€Å"enough† show clearly that they do not have time. In the next two lines, â€Å"We should sit down and think which way to walk, and pass our long love’s day† which is related to the first two sentences explains that they would sit down and think where to walk to and have a nice day if they had time. â€Å"Thou by the Indians Ganges’ side Shouldst rubies find: I by the tide of Humber would complain†. He tells her this to show his love to her to mean that if they were far apart, he would complain. â€Å"I would love you ten years before the flood: And you should, if you please, refuse till the conversion of the Jews† is said by the persona probably to show her how long he has loved her and that they will have a never ending love. Also in this statement, â€Å"till the conversion of the Jews† which might never happen, is said to show that he will love her forever. He goes on to exaggerate that the love he has for her will slowly but surely grow larger then an empire by saying, â€Å"My vegetable love should grow vaster than empires, and more slowly. By the tone of the persona in this statement, it shows a bit of confidence and boldness. In the next line, â€Å"An hundred years should go to praise thine eyes, and on thy forehead gaze. Two hundred to adore each breast: But thirty thousand to the rest. An age at least to every part." Over here, he uses erotic and passionate words to show to the mistress how much he adores her body. There is a bit of lust and obsession. He also uses the word â€Å"gaze† to show her that he would never be tired of looking at her body and he also relates it to time.

Michael Moore Sicko

1.Michael Moore’s movie Sicko is so controversial because it makes people think. He went to Cuba and showed it, not as this horrible place that we’ve all be told but as a caring country willing to help our citizens. This movie proving that Universal Healthcare works in other countries makes people wonder why it has to be so difficult to have it here. The Unites States is suppose to be the most powerful country and yet so many Americans feel powerless when it comes to healthcare. 2.Some pros for Universal Healthcare are everyone would be covered. People would be healthier and live longer. Our poverty rate wouldn’t be as high because people wouldn’t be losing their homes because of medical bills. It would make businesses more productive because they wouldn’t have to carry insurance. Some cons for Universal healthcare are higher taxes. There is a longer wait for surgeries. All the people that work for the insurance companies would lose their jobs. 3.Some relative changes in healthcare because of the Universal Healthcare Bill are not having to wait or being denied because of a pre-existing condition. You will no longer have a higher rate because of your health status. Insurance companies wouldn’t be able to cancel your policy due to an adverse health condition. Children will be covered under their parents insurance policies until they are 27. New plans must cover check ups and preventative care with out co-pays. 4.Most Americans are concerned about the new law requiring almost everyone to have insurance. A lot of people simply can’t afford it although the new law is suppose to make it more affordable. Another concern is wait time to see a doctor. With more people seeing doctors there will be a longer wait time to get in and the less time the doctor has to spend with you in the room.
