So we ask ourselves‚ how does poetry gain its power? To answer this question‚ we examine the work of poets Harwood and Plath. ‘The Glass Jar’‚ composed by Gwen Harwood portrays its message through the emotions of a young child‚ while the poem ‘Ariel’‚ written by Sylvia Plath‚ makes effective use of emotions to convey artistic creativity and inspiration. Through my personal reading of Harwood’s poem ‘The Glass Jar’‚ I view it as an examination of maturation – the inevitable change driven by painful

Doris Lessing’s "A Woman on a Roof" allows us to understand how some men view woman: as mere objects for display and possession. Lessing shows how each of the male characters reacts and deals with rejection from a woman sunbathing on a nearby rooftop.
