ANALYSING AN ARGUMENT(ASSESSMENT)

THE TWINS…

I always thought twins were something for the special and that probably a lot of us could not be ever so special…little did I know.

I have learnt the great truth, that indeed we all have twins. They may not be identical but they are twins right?

The first twin is love, this twin is shy and will never come out in the open until one is ready but given time she’ll paint you life with colours of the rainbow…

She is never wrong but will never make you feel wrong or anything less than beautiful

She cares for you and gives you the best despite that you push her to the side all the time

She is bright but only if you allow her to be…

She is sweet but only if you taste her right…

She is alive but only if you let her shine…

She hides in corners identify her if you can…

She also your best friend, treat her as such…

She wakes up in the middle of the night to be sure your pillow is comfortable

She waters your lovely plants of trust and happiness

She closes the door to keep the cold of the mountains and the rivers outside

She opens the window so you can see the glorious sun shine into your life

She helps pull you together when you think you can’t go on

She is your best friend, treat her as such…

The second twin is challenge, she’ll always be there in you face she is not rebellious but you’ll think she is so take time to understand her she’ll be sure to make you stronger…

She is rather loud you can never miss her…

She is very pushy you will want to die…

She grows with time you will want to kill her…

She never smiles but makes sure you do when she leaves…

She is your best friend treat her as such…

She comes in forms learn to identify her…

She’ll come during a bright day and make it dull…

She’ll dance to the tune of your cry…

She’ll open doors of darkness and make sure you go in…

She’ll live you in solitude to make you feel worthless…

She’ll crush your hope when you need it the most

She is still you best friend treat her as such…

Everyone in life is the twins…

We are your best friends treat us as such…

Love you Jessica & Aznur......have a lovely day

PS:Be sure I’m there with you…



This poem i dedicate it to my critical thinking lecture & tutor. From this poem, i can make a formal contradictory claim. lets look at the sentences starting from line 16. the formal contradictory claim will be as follows:

she does not wake up in the middle of the night not to be sure your pillow is not comfortable

She does not water your lovely plants of trust and happiness

She does not close the door to keep the cold of the mountains and the rivers outside

She does not open the window so you cannot see the glorious sunshine into your life

She does not help pull you together when you don't think you can go on

She is not your best friend do not treat her as such

She does not come in forms do not learn to identify her

neither will she come during a bright day nor make it dull

She'll not dance to the tune of your cry

Neither will she open doors of darkness nor make sure you go in



as this contradictory claim continues then we will reach the climax of the poem now. this is shown by the last four lines of the poems. the contradictory claim will read:

Everyone in life is not the twins

we are not your best friends do not treat us as such

don't love you Jessica and aznur......don't have a lovely day

PS:don't be sure i am not there with you

its not me madam Jessica & Madam Aznur. its your subject. please bear with me. funny huh!

Actually we see that when using contradictory claim which is one of the rour steps of analyzing an argument, sentences can change its meaning to the opposite direction as seen above.
