Cheyenne Johnson August 22‚ 2013 Poem Analysis “‘Out‚ Out-‚’ ‘’ by Robert Frost My emotions toward this poem are depressed‚ forlorn‚ and melancholy. In “’Out‚ Out-‚’”‚ a young boy is at work about to go to dinner when suddenly the saw cuts off his hand. A boy his age shouldn’t have to die doing a man’s job.

On ‘Acquainted with the Night’ ‘Acquainted with the Night’ by Robert Frost is the kind of poem I would read if I were up late at night‚ feeling disconnected from my friends and family. It has a sort of comforting eeriness‚ the kind that could lull you to sleep‚ yet keep you up thinking for hours. It makes me feel detached and lonesome‚ but still at rest.

As mentioned‚ the base metrical pattern of this poem is
