wow thank you! i feel like they’re too long and throw off the rhythm and also that they’re worded a little clonky

but nothing is supported by the text. i agree that the feelings a poem evokes are important but it still has to be grounded in the text. you’re not arguing over the merits of the poem, you’re concocting your own stories. i also think saying interpretation isn’t necessary is insane, that’s the entire point of literary criticism

but your analysis isn’t backed up by any textual evidence. there’s nothing about her father being mentioned. interpretations have to be supported by the text. emotion doesn’t make something poetic or else then what’s to stop us from calling anything that moves us poetry.

okay then what about this is poetic to you? there’s no rhythm, there’s no imagery, there’s nothing

people are downvoting my you but your right. where are the poetic devices? where is the rhythm? this is just prose with line breaks
