For this 3-4 page paper, you are required to select one poem from your text that we have or have not discussed in class and analyze it according to the means (the stylistic poetic devices) and themes. You will select three means of analysis and explain how these means are used in the poem by giving examples and citing lines from the poem. For example, you may select the means of alliteration, imagery, and rhyme scheme. Next, you will explain at least two themes that you feel are evident in the explication of the poem. You will need to give examples of phrasing from the poem to back up your statements of opinion on the meaning of the work. Include a Works Cited page, as you will be quoting lines and citing them in your paper.
