Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. –"Do not go gentle into that good night," Dylan Thomas Which statement best expresses the theme of the poem? Death is inevitable, so there is no point in trying to resist it. The cruelty of death is that we do not know when it will happen. No matter what, it is important to struggle to stay alive.

Answer:

But more specifically, Thomas' poem tells people to "not go gentle" into death. Here, the word "gentle" means "docile," or passive and without resistance. in other words, Thomas tells readers they should not accept death passively, but instead should fight (or "rage") against it ("the dying of the light").

Masja [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

One day I went to the store

I bought sugar and a pinwheel

With money from my mom.

On another day I was walking

And a car had some weird exhaust-

It smelled like lavender.

The calendar said there would be mist,

So maybe it was that instead.

I have faith that you will figure it out.
