In class we watched the movie seven, which I had never heard about this movie until now. Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman are the two main characters and there jobs are being detectives. The movie takes place in New York City. These two detectives were put together on this case, they thought this case was just a regular murder but once they start searching the apartment they find a strange note. The note was simply the word gluttony which is one of the seven deadly sins. There is gluttony, sloth, pride, envy, wrath, lust, greed. Everyday there is a new murder with a new message. With each murder the message resembles why the victim was murdered. Near the end of the movie the murderer turns himself into the detective. He claims he is only doing what God has told him to do, thinking it would leave an impact on people to make them stop there bad ways.

Retired Greyhound I

                This poem is the perspective of a dog, and I really like that idea because it’s different.  We never get to hear what our animals are thinking and I like that fact that this dog has a “voice”.

Retired Greyhound II

                I did not really understand this poem as much as the first. But the dog was abused and in the end they still stick with each other and still have a connection.

Golden Retriever

                This poem was humorous it talked about a dog being distracted by all the everyday things around him, it reminds me of myself because I find myself being easily distracted about what’s not important .

How to Like it

                I didn’t get this poem.  A part of me thought that the dog would have gone crazy if the human wasn’t there to control him but I could be completely wrong.
