But the pidgeons are neccassary there a symbol letting you know that your alive them and the sun beaming down on your head I think the two work together secretly to annoy us seriously cause you don’t have one without the other when the sun is down you see no pidgeons at all its like they go to an other land but the moment the sun shines its face on the buildings the pidgeons are up and ready for a new day.

I cant say that I have seen pidgeons on the outskirts of downtown like in town outside of Houston its like they are only attracted to big buildings and a lot of people with noisy cars and special
Writing, as described by E.L. Doctorow, is an exploration. In her novel, Bird by Bird, Anne Lamott explores the writing process, providing her insight on stylistic, theoretical, and instructional points. These points are essential in the composure of a book and are prevalent in many literary works such as Tim O’Brien’s The Things they Carried. In his book, O’Brien relives his time on the frontlines of the Vietnam War, telling fictional stories of life before, during, and post war.

2. The street in where we live is where the wealthy people live, so it’s not really crowded like in streets of the city. Besides, it’s actually distant from the city.. the noises and the poor. Basically a good place to refresh and rest your minds. To be honest, I’m not really close with our neighbours. They’re rich too and somehow, I always get the feeling they actually pretend to be nice to other people and have this evil back-up plan somewhere in their head. (Which I do not have of course!)

Obsession can be many things depending on how it is taken in view. Most of the time obsession can become very dangerous and end with devastating consequences. It can be brought about by many variables. Either way it can lead to a man’s downfall or just cause him great pain. In Poe’s “The Black Cat” the man’s obsession became the cat that he killed then tried to replace.

The significance and spirituality of birds in Native American culture is translated into Native American literature. In Monkey Beach, The Lesser Blessed, and Flight the main characters experience traumatizing events. As indigenous characters, the spirit world and spirituality are mechanisms that they use to cope with their trauma. Whether these characters have the birds’ spirituality thrusted upon them through birds or seek spirituality in the birds, the main characters of all three pieces of literature all share birds as devices of spirituality. In these books birds
