New poetry paket
This week the poem I'm doing is the untitled one. This one was short and sweet and to the point, well it wasn't actually sweet because it wa talking about eating hearts. I believe it's talking about how someone can be so biter about the feelings and actions in their heart that they come to a kind of accepance of it. They realize they can't change the ways of their hearts so they accept their bitterness now matter how ugly it makes them. When I think of this creature I think of like a strong hunched over naked dirty guy holding something grotesque in his hand, and then as you get closer you see it's a heart and he's eating it. That's not the picture that you would ever think anyone saying "I like it." It represents acceptance as the ugly beasts we all can be.

It wasn't actually sweet, no! I like it too, but it does feel a little wrong.
ReplyDeleteYou've done a good job of paraphrasing or finding the theme, what else can you tell me about the structure and the way the poet chose to write it?
