Camille Addison resents the hand life has dealt her. Enrolling in an evening class to distract herself from memories of frustration, she finds herself instead turning to face the tumult of relationships, loss and love that has led her to where she is.Abolish the Rose, by Alanna Irving, takes us on a journey through the past in search of meaning in the present. Through a vivid catalogue of heart-warming and harrowing life experiences, we are drawn to question, along with Camille - how much control do we have over the path our lives take? Would we change the past if we had the chance?

Percy Bysshe Shelley's Ozymandias masterfully encapsulates the transient nature of power and the enduring consequences of human hubris. Through the vivid imagery of a decaying statue in an endless desert, Shelley illustrates how Ozymandias's once-mighty empire has crumbled into obscurity, leaving behind only a shattered monument and an ironic inscription: "Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!" This stark contrast between the king's boastful proclamation and the surrounding desolation serves as a poignant reminder that all human achievements, no matter how grand, are ultimately ephemeral.
