    The Jewish people were targeted and the people were aware that Jews were disappearing each day yet nothing was done and no one “stood up for them.” For instance “Those classified as different are refused human rights and personal dignity” are main examples of what were taken away from the Jews (Source B). Similarly stated “First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew… Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me” (Source C). Both these excerpts have very important meanings because they define what happened to the Jewish people, what was taken away from them and the horrible anxiety waiting until you were taken away.

    This is why, structurally, the length, diction, and tone are similar in both stories. They follow a similar format of explaining their relationship, how they interact with each other, and finally by recalling their first encounter. Their tone also follows a similar pattern by conveying disappointment, anger, and fatalistic. Their voice echoes each other because they're the same person and they're virtually talking to each other in the two different stories.

    “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe is about a grieving man who is visited by a strange Raven who can only say the word “nevermore”. Believing the Raven to be some sort of prophet, he asks him a series of questions, which the Raven may only reply with “nevermore”. The man continues to ask the questions, and becomes more and more distraught with each one, until he ultimately decides that he will be mournful for eternity, which leads us into the theme of the poem: if you dwell on their grief for too long will be the cause of their own anguish.…

Kim Addonizio chooses tattoos as a symbol in this poem “First poem for you.” Water and lightning is what makes the poem most symbolistic. “Lines of lightning pulsing just above your nipple can find as if by instinct the blue swirls of water on your shoulder where a serpent twists facing a dragon.” Though symbols can have more than one meaning to them the poem helps to point of the specific meaning of these symbols.…
