In rhyme and meter‚ Claude McKay’s “If We Must Die” generally conforms to the conventions of a Shakespearean sonnet‚ but at several moments throughout the poem‚ McKay also strays from the rules of the English sonnet. In composing his poem in the style of the traditional Shakespearean sonnet‚ McKay creates a clear narrative that is both easy to follow and equally artistic.

both of these poems speak about death and morality‚ they do so in very different ways. The manner of speak differs in these poems as well as their rhythm‚ meter‚ and structure.

The tone exhibited in Heaney’s

In the poem “Richard Cory”‚ Edwin Arlington Robinson depicts a “grass is greener” presumption with a twist. The speaker in this poem‚ representing the working class‚ tells about a gentleman by the name of Richard Cory; a man everyone admired.
