Poetry Assignment #1

1. The poem that was borrowed for the commercial is The Laughing Heart by Charles Bukowski.
2. The poem can be considered ironic because the poem has such a strong message being conveyed but it's just an advertisement just to buy pants.
3. The poem reflects Bukowski because he lived through a lot and had a very rough child hood. He never gave up though and the poem reflects that light at the end of the tunnel.
4. I first looked the poem online by Bukowski and then used Poets.org to find out more information on his background.
