JOURNAL ENTRY #9: National Anthem paragraph

My selection was the Chinese national anthem, and my chosen image is a red piece of cloth. Red symbolizes the flag of China and is a common color. Within the text, there are words concerning war and violence like flesh and blood. I can visualize armies of soldiers wearing a piece of cloth around the heads and in the flags they are holding while marching past the Great Wall of China. The red cloth can also be associated with fire which could also be held by the soldiers. The text of this particular anthem create great visual picture and include emphasis on words like "arise" and "march on" and seems to portray "fighter".
