Poetry #1

1. From what poem/author does this commercial borrow (without credit)? 
- The Laughing Heart by Charles Buwoski
2. Why might the use of this poem by a corporation be considered ironic?
- The commercial is ironic because the poem has a deeper more complex meaning and the commercial is advertising blue jeans which are simple and straight forward.
3. Does the poem reflect the reputation of the author? Why/why not? 

- I believe the poem reflects the reputation of Buwoski because he had a hard life but still searched for the good moments.4. How did you find the answers to #1 & #3? Describe your research process and your sources in detail.
- I searched "your life is your life" in Google and then my blog from last year remembering this assignment.
