In the poem "Landscape with the fall of Icarus" William Carlos Williams suggest that people are selfish,life is complicated,everything you do in life has a consequence.The author suggests all those things by using some techniques as diction,word choices,personification etc.."a splash quite unnoticed this was Icarus drowning",this quote shows how no one cares about others.Despite the fisherman is fishing and he sees Icarus is drowning he's not doing nothing to help him.The author suggests that in life you have to take responsibility to think before you do something because when you are getting in trouble no one is going to help you.
In the story"Daedalus and Icarus " by Ovid the author suggests that when people take some risks they should expect sometimes bad consequences.And he also suggests that people should be listening to their parents otherwise bad things will happen to them."I warn you,Icarus ,fly a middle course:don't go too low, or the water will weigh the wings down;don't go too high or the sun's fire will burn them."This quote shows how Daedalus is scared like he knows what can happen .and he want to make sure that his son Icarus is safe ,therefore he teach him everything Icarus need to know so he can be safe.
In the picture"Landscape with the fall of Icarus" by Bruegel the author suggest almost the same thing as the poems above.He suggest that in life you have to be responsible for your own action and think carefully before you take a risks.He also suggests that people don't care about other's problem.Icarus is in the ocean drowning no one try to secure him.The author suggests that when people are in trouble that 's when other people are busy doing their work that they can't even do anything to rescue them.
From all of the those three poems the authors all try to say how people are selfish.And people make life being complicated .The authors show that taking risk is leading to some bad consequences.
