I believe music on its own is a letter and it meant to communicate to us as people. The kind of music you listen is who you are‚ its either you are rough‚ soft or just tempo.

In the poem "The Fish‚" Elizabeth Bishop uses a fish as a symbol to express the theme of life and experience. The poem by itself has little structure to it. There are no apparent rhyme schemes‚ nor any clear meters.
