analysis a poem
In your first paragraph, summarize or put into your own words what the poet/writer is saying. If you are doing a poem, you do not have to paraphrase it line by line. However, make sure you include all major ideas. For example, if you choose Thomas Gray’s “Ode on the Death of a Favorite Cat”, you need to say more than “Some dude’s cat dies”. If you choose Samuel Pepys or Olaudah Equiano, summarize those sections of the men’s work that you have read.
In your second paragraph, explain how you react or respond to your choice. What does it make you think about? What did you like or dislike about it? Be sure to explain why. Also, create a question for us about your choice. You questions can work very well.
I will send the peom to you
