.... and vivid imagery, she creates a poem that can be interpreted in many different ways. The precise form that Dickinson uses throughout "Because" helps convey her message to the reader. The poem is written in five quatrains. The way in which each stanza is written in a quatrain gives the poem unity and makes it easy to read. "I Could Not Stop for Death" gives the reader a feeling of forward movement through the second and third quatrain. For example, in line 5, Dickinson begins death's journey with a slow, forward movement, which can be seen as she writes, "We slowly drove-He knew no haste." The third quatrain seems to speed up as the trinity of deat .....

.... screaming, with fireworks exploding and filling the night sky with bright coloured sparks. The second and more sinister meaning is that if war, when explosions devastate and the children running around screaming are running for their lives. That in war time these beautiful fireworks kill and injure people. The man in the poem was in a war and being around the antics on a Guy Falkes night bring back evil, unpleasant memories of war with people dying. Later in the poem we learn that the man's brother had dies in the war as the line reads : "I hear a corpse's sons -- 'Who's scared of bangers!' 'Uncle, John's afraid!' In the story the author uses .....

.... dirty environment. By giving the spider a white color seems to disguise it. The white color of the spider is a mask that makes people think that it is innocent and pure when it is really not. Traditionally spiders have been associated with dirty and devilish acts. By portraying the spider as white it comes into a whole new perspective, and you begin to think that maybe the spider is not so bad after all. In the second part of the first stanza Frost describes a witches brew with all the ingredients being white. Witches have traditionally been ugly people wearing all black, the color that represents darkness and death. By saying that the white spider and t .....

.... a detailed literal study of such a lowly creature. The end result, however, is an entertaining and unusual perspective on a universal enemy of mankind. The opening stanza sets the stage for the depiction of the fly in the rest of the poem. The first line, which begins describing the fly with "O hideous little bat, the size of snot," immediately introduces the atmosphere of what is to follow. The lines that follow describe a creature that is lowly and parasitic, yet well suited to the world it lives in and feeds off of. The second stanza depicts the fly flying as a minute messenger of filth and disease. It is described landing on the heap of dung, the .....

.... plain English--noticing what is stated in the poem, as well as seeing the "connotations " or what is implied by the image. For example, when Robert Burns describes his beloved in these words, does he mean that she's "thorny"? O my Luve's like the red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June Probably not! At least, if he's smart. So how is his beloved like a flower? The rose is relatively rare and delicate; it needs to be treated with care. Being "newly sprung" implies that, as a fresh bloom, the rose is young. So what do these traits have to do with his beloved? Maybe she's uncommon ("rare"). Maybe she should be treated with courtesy and gentleness. May .....

.... is long and painful and her husband’s seems shorter and to the point. The poem begins with Amy’s husband being somewhat annoyed as he looks up to the top of the stairs and asks her why she always gazes out that window. She tries to immediately escape any discussion and threatens to leave for fresh air before trying to talk anything out. He obstructs her attempt to escape and forces her to describe what she is looking at when she continually gazes out the window. She is offended by his lack of understanding of what she is viewing and the conflict unravels. It seems as though they both have been grieving the loss of their child differently. Any feels .....

.... The poem as a whole also does not appear to have a single definable theme. At one point, the narrator seems wholly narcissistic, and then turns to the power and beauty of nature. It is, however, in the final third of the poem where the narrator reveals his true thoughts to the reader, bringing resolution to the poem as a single entity, not merely a disharmonious collection of words. At the outset of the poem, the narrator gives a very superficial view of himself, almost seeming angered when one of the tramps interferes with his wood chopping: "one of them put me off my aim". This statement, along with many others, seems to focus on "me" or "my", ind .....

.... but able to see things. Tiresias sees many things throughout the poem. According to J.G. Keogh in, O City, O City: Oedipus in The Waste Land, "Tiresias can imagine how things look from what he hears: the clatter of breakfast things, the thudding of tins, the sounds of the typist's young admirer as he gropes his way downstairs in the dark (pg.194)." Tiresias is able to use his other senses to see what is going on around him. He becomes an observer of everything around him. Tiresias is used in the poem as the observer of the typist and her young lover. He sees all of the hurt going on between the characters. Tiresias states that, "And I Tiresias have fores .....
