The poem that I would pick is "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T. S. Eliot. The poem was first published in 1915.

This poem is a great example of Modernist literature, and it provides insight into the issues of the time. In this text, J. Alfred Prufrock is concerned with the life he has had so far. He is frustrated, as he believes himself to be stuck, and unable to progress in life to the extent he would have wanted to. He is also lonely and isolated, and he laments the lack of a partner. All of these problems reflect many of the worries of modern life that became apparent in the early 20th century and that still plague our life.

The poem is written in the style known as stream of consciousness. This is a way of writing in which the thoughts of the characters are written in the way in which they appear in the characters' minds. Because of these, the thoughts are often random, convoluted or illogical.

Choose one poetic element that Dickinson uses in either "This is my letter to the world", or "Because I would not stop for Death
Pavel [41]

In both poems, the poetic element that stood out to me the most is the use of personification.

In "This Is My Letter To The World," nature is personified as being able to speak, "The simple news that Nature told"(3) Dickinson states that she cannot see what was told, but asks that the countrymen do not judge her regardless.

In "Because I Could Not Stop For Death" she applies personification to death, who appears to be the driver of a carriage, arriving to take the speaker into the afterlife.

"Because I could not stop for Death -

He kindly stopped for me -" (1-2)

Dickinson's speaker is describing her experience with death. In the opening stanza, she was too busy for death - but Death had enough time for her - and was civil enough to stop .

"We slowly drove – He knew no haste

And I had put away

My labor and my leisure too,

For His Civility –"

Death's "civility" caused her to drop everything that occupied her time before his visit, and she enjoyed the carriage ride instead.
