What is the effect of rukeyser's choice to write "poem" in free verse? the poet is able to write from the second person point of

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: the poem seems unplanned and chaotic.

In "Poem," author Muriel Rukeyser tells us that she "lived in the first century of world wars." The main idea of the poem is how this was an era of madness ("I would be more or less insane," "more or less mad for similar reasons," "a nameless way of living," "unimagined values," "the lights darkened... the lights of night brightened"), and how the people were deeply affected by this madness and by the wars. The fact that the poem is written in free verse contributes to this mood of confusion by making the poem seem unplanned and chaotic.

Answer:

Dear Sir,

I wanted to inform you someone in my (whatever) class has been stealing. It has been ongoing and when I began to question him about it he denied it. After this I received a threat via text which I assume is him. If I may suggest catch him in the act so he cannot deny it and then phone his parents. I hope this can be figured out and it can not be a distraction to other students.

Thank you for your time,

Answer:

1. The old couch springs moaned as the rather large man sat down on it.

Personification. It personifies the 'couch' as a human, 'moaning' when the large man sat on it.

2. The hot sauce burned like fire when I bit into the taco.

Simile. Compares the hot sauce to a fire using 'like'.

3. I am so tired, yet I still have a million things to do before bed.

Hyperbole. Uses an exaggerated expression to describe the things to be done.

4. You can't find your book because your room is a pigpen. Please clean it.

Metaphor. Comparison between the speaker's room to a pig pen without using the words "like" or "as".

5. The piece of chocolate cake taunted me each time I went to the kitchen.

Personification. Personifies the cake to a human, 'taunting' the speaker.

6. The neglected little kitten was as light as a feather from having no food.

Simile. A comparison made between the kitten and a feather using the word "as".

Explanation:

Similes and metaphors are two ways comparisons are made. The only difference is that similes use "like" and "as" to compare while metaphors do not use the two comparison words.

Hyperbole is when the description is given using too much emphasis, way beyond what it really is. The description is done with exaggeration.

Personification is when non-living ideas or things are given human attributes, characteristics, etc.
