Poetry 1

1. The Laughing Heart by Charles Bukowski
2. The use of this poem by a corporation is ironic because the poem talks about life and being free which has no correlation to Levi Jeans.
3. The poem does not reflect the author's reputation because it mentions that his daily routine consisted of alcohol abuse, sex, and violence. Although it does mention that he is a truthful writer, that doesn't necessarily reflect on his reputation as a whole.
4. For number one I typed some of the words from the poem into Google and it popped up. For number three, I typed in the authors name then "reputation" and I found all of the information I needed.
