Love Without Love

1. According to the first four lines, the speaker loved this particular person because they never saw this person coming into their life, therefore it was a surprise and they saw a drastic change something called love.

2. The metaphor in lines 5-6 is "I've fly you flying through my soul in quick, loft flight" and this means that this special person came into their life very quickly like a plane, it was in and it was out. The extended metaphor is that this person was looking over the other persons life, enjoyed the nice view for a little while, and moved on before they were even settled.

3.The new metaphor is saying that as they enter their life again, trying to come crawling back, they are not a stranger therefore the dog of his heart, with let them back in.

4. I would describe this person the speaker is in love with is nothing the speaker could ever imagine, this person is better. This person like a bird, is elegant, nice and beautiful.

5.I think the speaker could love someone because they have never dreamed of the person, because they are better than they ever imagined and ever though even existed.

6.The dog would bark because it senses harm, or a stranger that would not be welcome into the home of the speaker, or his/her heart.

    In Osip Mandelstam’s poem numbered “300”, and in Marina Tsvetaeva’s poem “you loved me” both speakers are struggling with a loss of love. For Tsvetaeva’s speaker, the loss stems directly from a love built in a relationship and partner and the sudden feeling of betrayal and loss. For Mandelstam’s speaker however, the loss of love is in that of his friends and family, and not in that of an intimate relationship. They have betrayed his trust, and left him in a life of solitude and loneliness. Both speakers are encountering a powerful loss of something they care about and in their poems they are showing their resiliency and rebuttal towards that loss. This rebuttal comes from a place of isolation and understanding. It is only through recognition…

    The male protagonist, Guy, has always had the dream of a better life. Through the idea of flying, he feels as though he will get a sense of freedom from the cruel, oppressive life he lives in. Guy tells his wife “I’d like to said off somewhere and keep floating until I got to a really nice place…” (page 61). Guy’s hope for a better life for his family and for himself is what kept him going in life. Guy soon decides to take a ride in the air balloon by himself, and after realising that flying will not get him the hope he so long desired for, he jumps out of the air balloon. The boy saw his father up in the balloon thinking “...if his father was really trying to jump out of the balloon” (page 65). The place the male protagonist yearns for can be seen as heaven. He wants to live in a place of freedom, and this scene shows how much stress can be put onto a false hope when the belief in a better life, one of the aspects, is…

    The poem begins to clue one in on the death symbolism, with the title. She continues to write, “I willed my Keepsakes—Signed away.” This statement makes one think the narrator is getting his or her affairs in order, by giving his or her belongings away. In the same stanza, she continues to write, “What portion of me be Assignable.” This statement makes one think about the afterlife; the narrator’s body and soul are not assignable. Emily continues to go on to write “There interposed a Fly.” Next, the fact that a fly interrupts the narrator is another symbol pointing toward death. Flies tend to be around the rotting and decomposition of a corpse. This poem has several insinuations toward the final moments of…

Their first meeting was not only at Mrs. Flowers house but that this meeting was filled with aromas of freshly cooked food (tea cookies), the cold taste of lemonade on the palate and an atmosphere laden and rich in success. “It was the equivalent of attending church “ and attending church made her feel comfortable and so did Mrs. Flowers.

    There is a noticeable mood change in the poem in the third stanza, going from the last sentence in the second stanza, “She stank of deceit,” To the first sentence in the third stanza, “ I loved her.” These are both used to great effect in the poem, not only because they have very different messages, one talks of hate, the other love. However they are both short sentences, going hand-in-hand with the massive contrast of words to create a more tense feeling within the poem.…

    The fly and the king become polarized images. The fly, representing the mundane, is keeping the speaker firmly on earth, preventing the epiphany that some sort of holy or religious appearance (the King, for instance) would bring. Other polarized images presented in this first stanza are the stillness of air between the heaves of storms. The speaker was assuming the stillness around her on her death bed meant that she was waiting for some sort of major upheaval, some sort of religious moment when she would be whisked from this still quiet room into a new life. Before the appearance of the fly, it is evident that the tone of the room was of expectation. The speaker was obviously under a lot of pressure, she was expected to die, and the people surrounding her ,…
