Poetry Analysis

Time to work on the written analysis of your recitation poem.  Remember, this analysis should be 3 paragraphs, typed, and should QUOTE the poem to back up what you are saying.  In your analysis, you should answer the following questions:

1. What is this poem trying to communicate?  In other words, what is the unique perspective this poet is offering? (1 paragraph)
2. How does the poet develop/change the message throughout the poem?  (2 paragraphs)  (HINT: In this section you will likely want to spend time talking about specific techniques the poet uses, and what makes their style unique.)
