What is the literal meaning of the poem lobster by Anne sexton

English
1 answer:
lidiya [134]3 years ago
3 0

Literal meaning of the poem is that there is a lobster in world that does not understand the world of humans and lives its life unknowing of it.

Explanation:

The lobster is called 'A shoe with legs, ' in the very first line of the poem and then it is called to be  'a stone dropped from heaven'.

From then on many comparisons are made and it is shown that the lobster is blissfully unaware of the life of humans, their quirks and how they spend their time in their world as it blissfully lives in its life  without being bothered.

It is him that also doesn't know that these humans have a completely different idea of him that he has of himself and remains blissfully oblivious until its end.

I bet the butcher that he couldn’t reach the meat on the top shelf. He refused to take the bet because the steaks were too high.
AlladinOne [14]
This is an example of an idiom.

An idiom that has a different meaning than what it sounds like.

It doesn’t actually mean that the steak is high. “The steaks were too high” simply means that it’s too dangerous/risky.


Hope this helps!

What is your opinion or stand on this situation?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

I decide it's best to do something. It's not the first time it's happened, meaning that it's going to happen again. Not doing anything is basically the same thing as being a bully. I decide to tell a trusted adult so that the bullies can get what they deserve and that student can stop being bullied. It's the right thing to do and it solves things.

Explanation:

I hope this helps :)

Why isn't moon shadows entire family in the us
Goryan [66]
<span>The reflection of sunlight off of the moon's surface can only be seen when the earth is in the path of the reflected light. Essentially when the moon is not full, you see part of the moon that is in shadow. This is the same as looking at a part of the earth where it is night time, from space.</span>
