Whitman Predicting Ginsberg Every piece of poetry examined thus far this semester has had one common underlying thread. Regardless of form, style, or language, every collection of works has served as a vehicle to document history and warn humanity about the future.

Physician-assisted suicide (PAS) calls for physicians to prescribe lethal medication to patients with…
