    How My Poetry Changed

    • 487 Words
    • 2 Pages

    During the revision of my poems many elements were changed. This included the length‚structure‚diction‚ opening and closing. All my poems got longer; most of them substantially. All of my poems grew by at least one stanza. This was not at all intentional as I feel poems should just be as long as the creator deems necessary; assuming they don’t need to meet specific criteria. This is what differentiates a poem from a song. Most songs are edited and manipulated to fit in the 3 - minute time slot radio

Heaney’s use of free-verse form helps to keep the reader focused and to not be lulled by the lilting quality typical of some poetry. The narrator allows you to slip

    The poem ‘The Jaguar’ written by Ted Hughes describes the lifestyles of animals at a zoo and their different attitudes to entrapment in their cage. It compares the bored‚ lazy moods of the animals to the lively‚ adventurous mood of the jaguar‚ which does not see this confinement as a way of stopping him behaving as if it were in its natural environment.

    Elizabeth Bishop poses interesting questions delivered by means of a unique style. Do you agree? Focus on themes and stylistic features.
