Default Members, Please check my precise

It is physically impossible for a well-educated, intellectual, or brave man to make money the chief object of his thoughts just as it is for him to make his dinner the principal object of them. All healthy people like their dinners, but their dinner is not the main object of their lives. So all healthy minded people like making money ought to like it and enjoy the sensation of winning it; it is something better than money.
A good soldier, for instance, mainly wishes to do his fighting well. He is glad of his pay—very properly so and justly grumbles when you keep him ten years without it—till, his main mission of life is to win battles, not to be paid for winning them. So of clergymen. The clergyman's object is essentially baptize and preach not to be paid for preaching. So of doctors. They like fees no doubt—ought to like them; yet if they are brave and well-educated the entire object to their lives is not fees. They on the whole, desire to cure the sick; and if they are good doctors and the choice were fairly to them, would rather cure their patient and lose their fee than kill him and get it. And so with all the other brave and rightly trained men: their work is first, their fee second—very important always; but still second.

Precise
Although one enjoys making money and gets inspired by it, it is not wise to make it the chief objective of one’s life. Therefore, winning battle for soldier, preaching for a priest and curing patient for doctor is the main objective for them. Getting paid for all these services come next.

Very short attempt. Extend 20 - 22 words more into it. Moreover, give it a suitable title.

Default Have a look on my precise

EXA;MINATION 1971
The essence of poetry is that it deals with events which concern a large number of people and can be grasped not as immediate personal experience but as matter known largely from heresy and presented in simplified and often abstract forms. it is thus the antithesis of all poetry which deals with the special, individual activity of the self and tries to present this as specially and as individually as it can. The poet who deals with public themes may himself be affected, even deeply, by contemporary events at some point in his own being, but to see them in their breadth and depth he must rely largely on what he hears from other men and from mass instruments of communication. From the start his impulse to write about them is different from any impulse to write about his own affairs. It may be just as strong and just as compelling, but it is not of the same kind. He has to give his own version of something which millions of others may share with him, and however individual he may wish to be, he cannot avoid relying to a large extent on much that he knows only from second hand.

Fundamentally this may not matter, for after all what else did Shakespeare do: but the political poet does not construct an imaginary past, he attempts to grasp and interpret a vast present. Between him and his subject there is a gap which he can never completely cross, and all his attempts to make events part of himself must be to some extent hampered by recalcitrant elements in them, which he does not understand or cannot assimilate or find irrelevant to his creative task. in such poetry selection which is indispensable to all art, has to be made from an unusually large field of possibilities and guided by an exacting sense of what really matters and what does not. On one side he may try to include too much and lose himself in issues where be is not imaginatively at home, on the other side he may see some huge event merely from a private angle which teed not meab much to others. Political poetry oscillates between these extremes, and its history in our time has been largely attempts to make the best of one or the other of them or to see what compromises can be made between them.

My precise and its title:

Poetry :Collection of Political Desires and Abstractive Ideas
Poetry, the soul of all literatures is founded on subjective ideas. Even some renowned poets has formulated their themes on what others say, and what is the essence of society; moreover, they rely on unnatural instincts of other people’s wishes and experiences. It is a turning point in poetic life as it is from here where ‘political poetry’ begins, which fixes the domain of poetic thinking. Deliberate efforts are made to take contexts from historical past and then present situation is manipulated to form a dogmatic theology. Poetic mindset is basically a political mindset that narrows down to the deep routed interest of private minority groups; thus, poetry is a reflection of political mindset and is a representative of discrimination.

Seniors please check my precise and tell me shortcomings in my precise.Thanks in anticipation

Angry

Bit disappointed performance from the forum. Is'nt it a forum where students are provided a platform for correction of their misatkes? A couple of days have passed , and my notion that quite expected somebody will bother to think about my precis as well remained a dream. No compulsion yet some provocations for my seniors fellow beings. Very sad.
