 16 LITTLE RED NOSES AND A HORSE THAT SWEATS 

RHETORICAL ANNALYSIS 

What the actual frick is this song and why did his wife leave him for the garbage man, that which I do not know. However the song is quite a lyrical adventure taking the place of a man who is really kinky. Wanting to dip a lady into hair gel, why hair gel?, I do not know, yet it shows the weirdness of this man. Music is one way which many people communicate and some even use it to draw a mate in too fornicate. It seems the writer wanted to do the latter and maybe even the former, but mostly the latter. Ok jokes aside though music is used through oral traditions to show the acts of sex. many music especially those within ancient cultures are used to almost celebrate sex. For example the fornicating of the gods can bring about rain and other things which can bring good harvest. This is why during some rituals people sing and chant before fornicating. even in modern cultures we celebrate sex through music for example many modern rappers and pop artist will talk about the acts of "good sex". Although sex can be interpreted differently in different cultures in vastly different ways. one fact remains people still have sex wether in marriage or not and to express this act music often is a way to paint this action in a ritual like fashion.

symbols, culture death, bones

 I find it ironic that skulls, at least in our culture, represent death when in most cultures, death seems to be accepted as something that's not final, in a sense. While it does seem to marry well with the concept of erasure, the erasure that death speaks to seems--to me, at least--to be that of a previous state of being, or a former self. This view of death is usually explored as a type of cleansing and a way to (for lack of more abstract terms) wash away the old to uncover the new or the reformed; a necessary destruction for the purpose of rebirth.  Skulls, however, are a phenomenon, usually reserved for the representation of decay and rot, which is why I find the conflict between this symbolism and this particular view of death so interesting. Out of all symbols that we use to represent death in our culture, why is the skull so prevalent? What makes it so representative of the American worldview that we landed on it as our, for the most part, definitive symbol of mortality...

Isabella Mann: Cabeza De Vaca

 In the 1991 film, Cabeza de Vaca, the protagonist's transformation from ship wreak survivor to healer and spiritual figure underscores the profound relationship between human survival and the natural world. Stripped of his colonial power and status, he learned to depend on the land not only for sustenance but also for its meaning. The sacredness of place and ecology becomes central to his journey, as the environment itself serves as a teacher, teaching him resilience, humility, and interconnectedness. His journey through surviving and helping various tribes allowed him to fully experience the true meaning of life. His survival is not only achieved through domination but through listening, observing, and adapting to the rhythms of nature and the different spiritual practices around him.
