Poetry #1

1. This poem is called The Laughing Heart, written by Charles Buckowski. 
2. It is ironic because the message of living free and being an individual is sent, but the Levi's Company is trying to get people to buy their product just to be like everyone else, and the opposite of an individual. 
3. Just like the poem Richard Cory, this poem sends out a message that is similar to the Levi's commercial. And it goes with the reputation of Buckowski. 
4. To find the answer to #1, I googled the first couple of lines to the poem and it popped up the name of the poem and the author. To find #3, I googled who Charles Buckowski was and got background information and realized he is also the author of Richard Cory, i poem i rememberd and recited Sophomore year in english class.
