(lines 3-5) my clouded reflection eyes me like a bird of prey, the profile of night slanted against morning. (lines 6-8) i go down the 58,022 names, half-expecting to find my own in letters like smoke. (lines 14-16) a white vet’s image floats closer to me, then his pale eyes look through mine. i’m a window.

I said I wouldn’t, dammit: No tears. I’m stone. I’m flesh. (lines 3-5)

Explanation:

There are several types of conflicts, however, in this reflection, I will deal specifically with the internal conflict, that is, what is happening within us. The internal conflict consists of a situation of struggle, of struggle, of a necessity of taking a position, constituting itself in the battle that we fought in our interior. Experiencing internal conflicts is a situation that can produce anguish, mental confusion, afflictions among other problems. In this case, in lines 3-5, we can perceive an anguish and a mental confusion of the narrator and this shows that the narrator is in a situation of internal conflict.

The answer is indeed I said I wouldn’t, dammit: No tears. I’m stone. I’m flesh. (lines 3-5)

Explanation:

In his poem "Facing it", Yusef Komunyakaa narrates the impact of the Vietnam War over himself and others while visiting a Memorial. He is deeply touched by the names, the losses, the pain. He didn't mean to cry at first, and even fought his tears back by claiming to be strong, to be "stone", only to admit that he is "flesh", human. This internal conflict lasts only a couple of lines. Perhaps the author intends to make his audience understand how quickly he got emotional after seeing images of such cruel war.

"I said I wouldn't

dammit: No tears.

I'm stone. I'm flesh."

Okay, biology isn't exactly my strongest subject (it never has been), but i'm pretty sure the answer is nucleotides. dna is made up of nucleotides. each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group, and a nitrogen base. there are four different nitrogen bases: adenine (a), thymine (t), guanine (g), and cytosine (c). a always pairs with t, and g always pairs with c.

In act v of a midsummer night's dream, quince presents the prologue for “pyramus and thisbe.” when he finishes, hippolyta comments: indeed he hath played on his prologue like a child on a recorder—a sound, but not in government. which tone does the simile “played on his prologue like a child on a recorder” create? it creates a sad, wistful tone by comparing quince’s performance to a beautiful tune. it creates a surprised tone by comparing quince’s performance to an eloquent speech by a government official. it creates a relaxed tone by comparing quince’s performance to lovely recorder music. it creates a humorous tone by comparing quince’s performance to a child playing an instrument badly.
