Wassup. I have a poem here and I just need some critical feedback. DO NOT ANSWER IF YOU HAVE NOTHING CRITICAL TO SAY!! Thank you. :) The Finale

The odds are stacked against me,
These monsters won’t let me free,
Pushing me towards the looming ledge.
My feet standing on the edge.

I turn to face these two towering beasts,
Forget the prayers, betray the priests.
This battle is mine alone,
Solitary I stand, the floor littered with bone.

I will not lose against them,
I say let them come.
I will win for those who’ve died,
For those whom have tried.

I arm myself with resistance,
Preparing my resilience.
I will defy all I was told,
I will restore my heart of gold.

Be wary my old friends,
You will not be my end.
My soul has not yet resigned,
My determination grows from behind.

Read sentence 13 from the draft. some plants retain a great deal of their foliage through much of the spring and summer, but the leaves do not retain their green color for long. which detail would be best to add after sentence 13 to develop the topic? a. since the green color of the leaves that are bright and abundant during the warmer months will disappear by the time it is fall, it is important that the leaves are trimmed and kept freshly cut so that they will last for as long as possible. b. while the temperature outside may dictate when the fall colors of leaves appear, it is only one of many environmental factors that play a part in the changing of colors from green leaves to fall-colored leaves during the cooler months. c. if people want to enjoy the green color of leaves longer, trees should be planted where the environment is warmer and the days longer because chlorophyll in the leaves can only be manufactured and replaced with sunlight and warmth. d. the green chlorophyll normally masks the fall-colored pigments during the warmer months, but as sunlight becomes less abundant and trees become frozen, the fall colors of leaves become more visible as chlorophyll disappears.

Read the passage. then, identify the theme that is supported by the passage. most ships cannot survive a terrible thunderstorm. the ocean is an angry beast that will tame any who try to control it. the gods have the power to control human destiny. men are willing to die to eat the delicious cattle of the gods.

"the only completely stationary object in the room was an enormous couch on which two young women were buoyed up as though upon an anchored balloon. they were both in white and their dresses were rippling and fluttering as if they had just been blown back in after a short flight around the house."
