An example of this is when he describes the death of JonBenet Ramsey, a pageant girl who had been brutally murdered, and talks of the fear created among pageant contestants by Ramsey’s death, and the real possibility of pedophiles that could stalk pageants (492-493). Here he is trying to evoke sadness for the death of this little girl and to create fear of the possible dangers of being in beauty pageants. He also created emotion when uses narratives to describe the typical life of a pageant girl, for example when Hollandsworth using a tone of ridicule to describe Eden as “just another country girl, cute but not particularly beautiful” (495-496). The lengths at which parents will go to for their child to win a beauty pageant and the cost of these things is portrayed in a tone of criticism, such as “Parents, many of whom have only modest incomes, pay for high-glitz coaches, high-glitz wig makers, and high-glitz spray tanners” (492).

Some of an image that contains an in-depth meaning that are a father who is very frustrated and feeling hopeless when he couldn’t do anything better for his child other than trying to tell him to stop it even though he knows it wouldn’t work in the first place, a second image is that David Sedaris has to deal with OCD along with his actions and it is very painful because he could not control it and he knows it annoys other people and sometimes himself too. This point proves that a person who has OCD will eventually annoy and sink other’s person’s mood because they can’t stop, other people understand it but they all can’t cure it; they just want to try as many things as possible as they continue to hope that one day the disease will stop
Dillard implements imagery all throughout her essay, which gives the reader a clear picture of the events occurring. For instance, she describes her husband “gesturing inside a circle of darkness” as a result of him gradually travelling farther away from her (Dillard).

The poem “America” by Tony Hoagland dramatizes the conflict of life in America today. To many, poetry is a confusing group of words, but if the reader looks underneath the surface there is usually a deep hidden meaning of those words. In “America” the speaker is turning the words into metaphors to show the corrupted way of life Americans live. He uses key images in these metaphors to get the reader thinking. A key image is a word or phrase that doesn’t necessarily mean the literal object but instead shows characteristics of an unsaid object or idea.
