  1. The twist communicates memories. The empty dance shoes communicates memories. Yes. Because in the empty dance shoes Eady compares the empty dance shoes to a clown that is lying on the floor because he got beat up with a sandbag. In life when you are beat up on the ground always get up and carry on. And in the twist that you may not remember things but that doesn't mean that you have no knowledge.

  4. Both stories comunicate memories. This serves as a positive purpose because, for example, in t "Empty Dance Shoes" Eady compares the shoes with a clown who got beat up and cannot get up. This tells us that we shouldn't give up no matter how many times we're put down. Also, in the "Twist" he tells us that even though you don't remember something it doesn't mean you don't have any knowledge of it.

  6. Both poems communicate memories. In "The empty shoes" Eady compares the shoes with a clown knocked down by a sandbag; it serves as a positive purpose to us because we should never give-up when times get harder or difficult, we should always stand up and face those times. Also, the poem "The twist" serves as a positive purpose to us because Eady reflects that even though you can’t remember something that occur one time it doesn’t mean you don’t have the knowledge or understanding of it.

  17. ⌘ In both poems "The empty dancing shoes" and "The twist" we see how they communicates memories. In " The empty dancing shoes" Eady compares the empty shoes with a clown that was lying on the floor because he got beat up with a sandbag. In life we ​​must stand up and move on.

  25. Both poems teach us and show us to never give up. In The Empty Dance shoes the author compares the shoes with a clown. In the Twist he told us that it does not matter if we forget or don't remember doesn't mean we don't know about it. MY opinion is that sometimes we remember if we want or if we care things that doesn't matter in your life that don't have sense are easy to forget.

  27. In "The Empty Dance Shoes", Eady speaks about inertia referring to the state of being idle. The shoes did not move, because they did not have someone filling them. They were in need of something. At the end of the poem it says: "He is about to act upon a different set of scientific principles. He is ready to dance." In the stanza before this last two lines it is speaking about a boy and a bully. Now, it says he is "about to act upon a different set of scientific principles", meaning he is ready to make a change and stand up to the bully, fill the shoes. The idea of needing to come through and standing up for yourself.
    In "The Poetic Interpretation of the Twist" we see that the speaker was a child when the twist was in style. He has very little memory of the dance. (lines 41-46)He recalls his family, he recalls his neighborhood, but he does not recall completely the twist, he is unable to explain the dance's meaning. The memory of the twist is ambiguous to him, but the memory of his family and his neighborhood is clear.
    Both poems covey messages. To stand up for yourself, and fill your shoes. And that even though you may not remember something clearly, it does not mean you don't have a story to tell.
    This type of communication serves a positive purpose in a way that we can learn from, we can apply these messages to our lives.

  28. In both stories we see how the author delivers an idea to the reader and this idea is that both can create memories and discuss different ideas. The memories are transmitted though the story serving a positive purpose because it helps to make the story better. In the Twist the author does not remember at all and in the "Empty Dance Shoes" the author compares the shoes to a clown.

  29. They both convey memories in a positive way. In "The Empty Dancing Shoes", he uses inertia to motivate us to overcome the obsticles in our lives. Our problems won't solve themselves unless we act upon them. We must keep our heads up high and face any adversity with a strong heart. In "The Twist" , Eady takes a different approach. Here, he shows us the different memories a simple thing can bring up, and even if we don't remember what we were trying to explain in the first place, it doesn't mean we have no knowledge at all. We should revel in the memories that make us happy in life and forget about the negative. 10 Sabaot Arnaldo Colón.

  30. The "empty shoes" conveys the idea of never giving up for example, The clown on the floor that got beat up my the sand bag. Eady is telling us that no matter what, if you go down, you should alwayz go right up and keep trying and going until you get it right. The "twist" conveys memories, it tells you that even if that memory is blurry it dosent mean that you dont have knowlege or had the experience of it.

  37. What is in our past life or our life, has a memory. Every time we come to see the most pleasant memories of that. Maybe for other people simplemete is a simple object, but for us it is as if we were living in the moment or experience with the to see or feel. As the ballet slippers, shoes were only a few simple but they had some important memories. Both poems are about memories.

  38. In the poem of "The poetic interpretation of the Twist" the author, Cornelius Eady, communicates his memories by remembering his childhood. He is remembering his sister that he compares that runs like a giraffe (very fast), his father who escaped in his bicycle to do the grocery shopping by himself, and the barbershop. In this poem Eady tells us to forget the past and move on to the present and future that is what we have on front of us every day as a gift. In the other hand, in the poem "The empty dance shoes" Eady tries to give us a message in which he uses as example the empty dancing shoes. He tries to tell us that the shoes will not move until someone decides to put them on, giving us a message in which he tells that we need to put on our shoes in life in order to move on and prosper. I think that both poems are used too communicate positive messages in which the author tries to persuade us to never give up in life and always look forward to better things and a better future.

  40. In "The empty dance shoes" we see the meaning of inertia in every aspect of the story as we an empty shoes, which cannot move as an aspect matter. But if someone is using them or as we can say filling them. In this poem we can see as Eady is always telling use in the story about the needs and how can we fill our shows. This gives a really positive feeling to the reader as he experiences this poem.
    In the "Twist" Eady uses a really different method to gives us his always positive massage as we experience his poems. H e gave parts of his memory as he was a child. He shows us how he didn't remember much about how was the twist but he did remember about how the people danced it. In this story he teaches us about how we have to keep our memory alive.
    This both poems give us some very positive tips.

  41. Both poems communicate all kinds of memories . In the first poem, "The empty shoes" Eady compares the clown shoes. This poem gives us a positive purpose, because they tell us that we should never give up and we keep trying to be more difficult situations. In the poem "The twist" also gives a positive meaning that we can apply to our lives as human beings, because he says that if you do not remember anything that happened at some point that does not mean you do not know things with excellent knowledge and intelligence. <3

  42. Both poems have a positive purpose because they talk about standing up for us and that it doesn't matter if we forget stuff, we still have knowledge and learning.
    In "Twist" Eady talks about his memories. He says that we can't expect to remember everything about our childhood but that we still have knowledge about it. This is showed when he says "And I am sorry to admit you have come to the wrong person. I recall the twist the way they recall meeting a distant aunt as a baby or the afternoons spent in home room waiting for the last bell" Also when he says "My head hurts. I am tired of remembering"
    In "The Empty Dance Shoes" Eady teals about how shoes won't move if you don't fill them. The shoes are empty and this shows that if you don't have a purpose to move forward you can't do anything, shown in lines 3-5 when it says "An empty pair of dance shoes will sit on the floor like a wart until it is given a reason to move." Also, in lines 43-44 of the poem say "98-pound weakling brushes from his cheeks as the bully tows away his girlfriend" and the last stanza says "When he spies the coupon at the back of the comic book, He is about to act upon a different set of scientific principles. He is ready to dance." in which it shows us that we have to stand up for ourselves.

  43. The two stories contain and compare memories. The poems have positive meanings and objectives. Their objective is to teach us good human values (Never Give Up & Don't Doubt Yourself). The way that "The Empty Dancing Shoes" expresses this value is by comparing shoes with a clown that has been brought down and who cant get up and in the "Twist" we are told that just because we sometimes forget it doesn't mean that we are stupid.

  47. In "The Twist", the author is expressing that, even though he is not able to express everything that he already knows, he recognizes that the memories still are within him and he wishes to express that even though you do not know how to express, or say something, you still know, and remember. "The Empty Dance Shoes" are a different case, shoes that will not move until they are filled. Going to a deep thought, it is like a life without purpose, if you don't live it, it isn't going to take you anywhere, like the shoes, if you don't wear them, they're not going any place.

  57. The poem “Twist” communicate us the state of memory and flashback. We see this when the author recalls his family and his town in his childhood. At that moment of his childhood the twist was pretty famous but he doesn’t remember it as he remembers his family and town. In the poem “The empty dance shoes” communicate to us the state of inertia. The reader see the in the poem when the author describes the situation of the clown that got beat up by a sandbag. The poem “The empty dance shoes” serve as positive purpose because it show us that if we fall or get beat up by something, we can’t keep our self in the floor, we need to stand up and continue with our live and show people of what we are capable of. Also the poem “Twist “serve a positive purpose because if we don’t remember something it doesn’t mean that we aren’t intelligent or that we don’t have memory it only shows that that wasn’t pretty important to our lives. If we don’t remember something we must show people that we can do the same things that they do.

  61. "The Twist" and "The empty dance shoes" communicate memories. The authors show the reader different ideas; in "The Twist" the memories are showed in a positive way toward the reader. What the author is trying to tell us is that if you don't know something to the 100% you should keep trying until you find out what it is. In the empty shoes Eady compares the shoes as a clound that got beat and couldn't get up and keep fighting. This messege that the author brings us is to tell us that you should never give up in life no matter what problem or enemy you comfront.

  62. Both poems reach out memories. In "The Twist" he is somewhat more positive in an energetic way while in "The Empty Dance Shoes" he is completely positive, given the comparison in which he compares the shoes to the clown that once fell and kept fighting. This all definately serves as a positive purpose since it is giving hope to those that have fallen at one point in life.

  63. The empty shoes and twist the show memories. Both have a good purpose. Example: in the empty shoes Eady compares the shoes of a clown who was beaten and could not get up. This teaches us that we have to fight for what they really want and not give up. The Twist tells us that even if we do not remember something does not mean we do not have the knowledge to do something.

  64. In both poems, "The Twist" & "The Empty Dance Shoes", Eady talks mostly about memories. This is a positive type of communication beacuse it helps the reader visualize the idea the author is trying to convey. For example in "The Twist" Eady says that even if you don't remember something it doesn't mean you have no knowledge at all. And he uses the empty clown shoes and compares them to the dance shoes to show that if we get beat up in life we have to get back up and keep moving forward.

  65. In the twist and in the empty dance shoes the author talks about memories. Yes it is positive because it helps us understand what the author is trying to say. In the empty dance shoes he compares the shoes to beat up clown shoes to show us that we have to keep going when life is hard. In the twist he is telling us that not remembering isnt a bad thing and it does not mean that you dont know anything.

  66. In both poems the authors write about memories. They're both positives because it teaches us positive things. In the first one it talks about the clown shoes and it teach us that we are gonna fall in life but we have to get up. In the other one we learn that we're not going always to remember all the moments but we will always have the knowledge.

  67. Both stories communicate us about memories. On The Empty Dance shoes the author explains that the shoes need something or someone to move. On The Twist the author shows you that if you forget something it doent means you have no knowledge about it.

  68. Both poems are about memories. These memories are reflected in a positive way. He uses inertia to motivate us. In the Empty Dance Shoes the author compares the shoes with the clown and in the Twist it talks about when you dont remember something that is normal.Andre julian Marrero 10th adonai

  69. In both poems they remember different memories they used to have. This type of poems have positive purpose because is something good that we can apply in our lives. In "The Empty Dance Shoes" it compares the shoes like a clown knocked out and it means that you have to stand and carry on with your life leaving behind the problems and focusing on the future. In "The Twist" the author couldn't remember very clearly, but he does recall the neighbors and most importantly his family. He is unable to remember that memory but this doesn't mean that if you don't remember you have no knowledge.

  71. Both of these poems have memories remembered in the passed and they compare them. In empty dance shoes, it compares shoes with a clown that got beat up, it is telling the reader never to give up. In the poem the twist it tells us that just because you dont remember something it doesent neccesarily mean you have no knowledge of this.

  72. Both poems are metaphorical. They transmit a possitive message. They tell us about their childhood memories, even though they are little fragments it doesn't mean they are less important.
