Poem And William Carlos William's Order In The Streets

In the poem "Poem" the syntax is very interesting because of how each line is organized. The way the lines are organized gives an image of what the poem is trying to show us. The way the poem is laid out may leave some think it is awkward, but the way it is organized actually makes it more rhythmatic than it would just read out in 1 or 2 lines. When reading the poem I picture the cat climbing/walking with pauses every time the line ends. For example in lines 5–7, "first the right"(Williams 5) pause as the cat steps, "forefoot/carefully"(Williams 6–7) you can picture the cat going slowly and carefully. In "Order in the Streets", Donald Justice uses similar syntax structure to William Carlos William's "Poem". The syntax is similar because both poems use how the lines are organized as a way to make the poem more interesting. In "Order in the Streets", the syntax help shape a picture of what the author is trying to portray. For example in lines 3–5, "Jeep rushes"(Justice 3) you can picture a jeep driving fast, "to the scene"(Justice 4) you slowly get a sense of the setting, "of riot"(Justice 5). By the end of these lines you can picture a jeep rushing to a riot of some sort. These lines help paint of picture of the poem and help with the theme of them as well



#4 In Emily Dickinson's poem "Some keep the sabbath going to Church", you can clearly see her opinion of religion and God. It seems like Dickinson likes the idea of religion, she just prefers to practice outside of the Church. For example in lines 2–4 following the central metaphor, she says "I keep it, staying at Home– /With a Bobolink for a Chorister– /And an orchard, for a Dome–"(Dickinson 2–4). In these lines she seems to find going out into nature to be more beneficial than a church. When Dickinson says "With a Bobolink for a Chorister", you can see she prefers the sound of birds over the sound of singing from a member of the choir. And when she says "And an Orchard, for a Dome–", it is clear that she prefers looking up and seeing trees rather than a dome of a chapel. In conclusion, I believe that Dickinson's views on religion is positive, but she prefers to practice it out in nature.



#5 I believe that the poem's title should be known as "Dream
