4. I found a newspaper article call “The Off season” by Amy Hoffman. This article connect to Pandora’s Box talk about the story between the author and another women named Pandora. She talks about the life of Lesbian people and Latin culture. The newspaper article is similar to Pandora’s Box. It also talk about story of Lesbian people.

One image I chose from “selected photography of Dulce Pinzón” is “Graciela Iturbide” by Lugo. In this picture, the bone buds of a lotus flower in the picture are much higher than the lotus leaves next to it. Another picture I chose from “selected photograph of Graciela Iturbide” is “The real story of super hero”. In this picture it depicts a person wearing spider-man costume washing the building. By comparing these two images I found that they express the similar meaning of the story of these two images. The person does not have a very advanced job, but he disregarded the eyes of others and wore fancy clothes on the upper part of the building. Although he is not a real superhero, he can serve the world with his own extraordinary talents like a superhero. Like Spider-Man, he uses his “superpowers” to silently serve his community. The image with the bone buds of a lotus flower is very similar to this one. Although it is not very large and strong, it has been relying on its own efforts to grow and surpass other lotus leaves to become the most eye-catching one.
6. I chose the poem “Mexican Heaven”. I want to include this poem on my blog because the poem is part of the Latinx culture. The poem depicts a lot Latinx history and people’s hope. This poem relates to the Newyorican poetry cafe topic. They write poems to express themself. I chose this quote: “All of the Mexicans sneak into heaven.” The meaning of this quote is Mexican people want a better opportunity in their life, so they probably crossed the border to another country.

Alternative ending:
I got the key and grabbed it tightly, and used it to open a door that contained the church. I look forward to my soul being purified. A sacred man came over after I entered the church. He nodded my forehead with his finger, and I instantly entered a mysterious and illusory space. Before my eyes is a very wonderful world, flowers and plants, green leafy trees, mountains and rivers, birds and beasts come into view. I have no strong desires in this world. I feel very comfortable. I lie down and enjoy all the beautiful and quiet pictures around me. When I opened my eyes, the saint told me that your heart had been purified. Finally left a kiss on my forehead and disappeared.
Finally, I had someone who Enlightened me and gave me the strength to break my routine. I felt so tired when I got home and fell on the bed. I don’t know when I woke up, I decided to set up a new email account and an instant messenger so that I could love her electronically and antenna as she thought. I can do whatever I want, love whoever I want, no one can bother me. I won’t feel the pain anymore. I now have more confidence to love someone I want to love boldly. You don’t need to pay attention to the eyes of others, because this is a love that ordinary people can’t understand.
