The Circular Ruins

The poem Circular Ruins was a very interesting read. At first, it was a slow start, but the ending was very interesting. I thought that the story was similar to the Sixth Sense. Not the part about a child seeing dead people walk around completely oblivious to the fact that they're dead, but the part about Bruce Willis thinking he was alive the whole time just to find out in the end that he's been dead the entire length of the movie. The man in the story, The Circular Ruins, is similar to the Sixth Sense because he dreamt of another person which is parallel to Bruce Willis talking to a child who saw dead people. Also in the poem, the man discovered that he was a dream dreamt up by another person, which is also parallel to Bruce Willis discovering that he has been dead the entire time and was seen by the child who saw dead people.
