On the other hand‚ in Sonnet 121 the poet is forced to consider his own actions against the reproof of others and refuses to submit to their judgment.

Sonnet 71 No longer mourn for me when I’m dead. Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell.

In “My Papa’s Waltz”‚ Theodore Roethke illustrates a father who is under the influences‚ dancing around the kitchen with his child‚ trying to dance his child to sleep. Therefore‚ Shakespeare and Roethke use diction‚ imagery‚ and detail to convey the complexities of power and their effect on the dynamics of relationships. In “Sonnet 130”‚ Shakespeare

Shakespeare knows this fact all too well and displays his understanding through his work in Sonnet 130. In this sonnet‚ Shakespeare uses a frank tone to convey his feelings of love to a woman who does not try to misrepresent herself as the perfect embodiment of a woman. In the first quatrain Shakespeare uses a blunt tone to compare objects that are normally
