After Us

AAFTER US In this poem, the poet uses a surplus of imagery to allow the reader to fully see what she is trying to get us to picture. In the first line, she talks about how rain, which can be destructive or helpful, is seeping into a room where books and other material things reside. In the lines to follow, she writes about how everything that flourished under the sun, turned away to try and find the light that they so desperately need. This shows the destructive side to rain because it paints the picture of a dark day with rain falling and silencing all activities that happen during the day. In the second paragraph, the poet writes about a portrait, which has sketches of boats and barns and this creates the image of a perfect utopia where everything is peaceful and nothing has disturbed it. The paragraph that follows this peaceful picture, is where the foreboding and evil rain begins to make its appearance again. She writes about how everything that was ever thought of or invented or t...

Dover Beach

DDover Beach 

The speaker watches out upon a quiet ocean, and notices the totality of the tide and the moon pondering the water. Looking across the English channel, the speaker sees the lights of the French coast disappear, while the precipices of the English coast stand tall and brilliant, and the inlet appears to be quiet. Out of nowhere, the speaker tends to another person, and beseeches this individual to come and take a gander at what the speaker is taking a gander at, and to appreciate the night's charming air. The speaker detects something isn't exactly correct, and portrays the shower where the water meets the twilight land. The speaker teaches the other individual to tune in to the sound of the stones as the waves shift them to and fro, up the sea shore and down once more. The speaker noticed this lethargic rehashing activity, and distinguishes it with everlasting pity. 

Out of nowhere, the speaker ponders the antiquated Greek dramatist, Sophocles, and envisions Sophocles hearing a similar bitterness in the Aegean Sea as the speaker hears now on the English coast. Sophocles, in the brain of the speaker, compares the tragic sound of the waves to the overall distress of humankind, which moves like the waves. The speaker at that point sees another idea that accompanies the sound of the ocean. 

Clarifying this next idea, the speaker portrays strict confidence as an ocean that was once full like the tide. Around then, it stretched around the earth like a support. Presently, however, the speaker simply hears that ocean's pitiful retreat. As the Sea of Faith decreases, says the speaker, it vanishes into the air and leaves the edges of the world bare. 

The speaker abruptly addresses the buddy as "adoration," and states urgently that both of them need to treat each other with genuineness and validness. This is on the grounds that the world, however it has a fantasy like nature of assortment, excellence and originality, doesn't really offer euphoria, love or clearness. Not one or the other, claims the speaker, would it be able to give assurance, harmony, or help from torment. The speaker at that point analyzes their aggregate circumstance to remaining on a level and dull real estate parcel, which is up to speed in the disorder of battling. Here, fights between unconscious gatherings proceed under the front of dimness.

Thank You!!

Song of Myself

SSong Of Myself “Song of Myself,” the longest poem in Leaves of Grass, is a joyous celebration of the human self in its most expanded, spontaneous, self-sufficient, and all-embracing state as it observes and interacts with everything in creation and ranges freely over time and space. The bard of the poem, speaking in the oracular tones of the prophet, affirms the divinity and sacredness of the entire universe, including the human body, and he asserts that no part of the universe is separate from himself—he flows into all things and is all things. The “I” of the poem is quite clearly, then, not the everyday self, the small, personal ego that is unique and different from all other selves. Rather, the persona who speaks out in such bold terms is the human self experiencing its own transcendental nature, silently witnessing all the turbulent activity of the world while itself remaining detached: “Apart from the pulling and hauling stands what I am, . . . Both in and out of the game and wat...
