Poetry Questions

"Arson" (72):

- I think it does make poem because the writer to read a certain way. I don't think if It wasn't written in prose it wouldn't be a poem. poems are written in different ways.  

- I think when he said "we" he meant the troubled people. People who are not seen as good by other and looked at as delinquents.  


"Rewinding an Overdose on a Projector" (260):

- I think the title is expressing how things are going in reverse. 

- In the last line it shows something happing in reverse and him keeping certain parts of what's left. 

- The last 5 line are in first person, I think when he says "I" is where he wanted to take control of the story and reveal how he is the boy. 


"Human Traffic" (270): 

- I think the spacing is just the way writer wanted it to be to give a certain impact.

- I think this line means the amount of different things water can do. How it can change in many ways yet still be the same. 

- I think this line is just saying u never know what's gonna come at you and how. 

- The last 5 lines are saying the way of life. As in the many same things we experience but take in a different way. 

"Young Hare" (494): 

- As a reread the poem I was able to see the hare as I read. also help me to understand the reading better. 

- I think maybe to show her trying to figure out his interest in the hare to finally realize he saw her beauty in the hare. 

- I believe she fascinated by him and the things he does and carries himself.

  1. Hi Elizabeth: I'm not sure what this means: " I think the spacing is just the way writer wanted it to be to give a certain impact." Doesn't all writing "give a certain impact"?
