Answer:

Read the poems below and answer the question that follows.

 

“The Taxi”

by Amy Lowell

When I go away from you

The world beats dead

Like a slackened drum.

I call out for you against the jutted stars

And shout into the ridges of the wind.

Streets coming fast,

One after the other,

Wedge you away from me,

And the lamps of the city p rick my eyes

So that I can no longer see your face.

Why should I leave you,

To wound myself upon the sharp edges of the night?

“Where Have You Gone”

by Mari Evans

Where have you gone

with your confident

walk with

your crooked smile

why did you leave

me

when you took your

laughter

and departed

are you aware that

with you

went the sun

all light

and what few stars

there were?

Where have you gone

with your confident

walk your

crooked smile the

rent money

in one pocket and

my heart

in another . . .

 

Compare the two poems in terms of presentation, poetic devices, and technique.  these are the passages and the question.

Serjik [45]
In William Shakespeare's "Sonnet 18," the line best paraphrases to but your youth will never fade.

In "Sonnet 18" Shakespeare tries to compare a fair maiden to a summer's day, but he expresses that there is nothing that compares to her because her perpetual beauty and youth are far greater than such a temporary, inconsistent season.
So, when Shakespeare writes <span>"<span>But thy eternal summer shall not fade,</span>" he is saying that her timeless youth will never fade, unlike the briefness of a summer's day.</span>
