How Does Enjabment Line Length Spacing And Vocabulary Make This Poem

What does a lack of punctuation signify in a poem?

Usually a lack of punctuation creates what might be described as “internal enjambment,” or in other words, it “annotates” the line by making two phrases seem to flow into each other, providing multiple ways to read the line. Another use, as seen in Frank O'Hara's “Lana Turner Has Collapsed” is to speed up a line, as if the speaker is whipping through the language quickly; the effect in O'Hara's poem is to create a snarky, sarcastic rhythm, in other words, a “short” delivery in the sense of “being short”/ “being snide.” Finally, if punctuation would fall in the line break but isn't there the purpose of omitting it is frequently to prevent the reader from pausing longer than the break itself before heading to the next line, an option that may be used for rhythmic purposes (since a line break is already a “quarter break” in a music analogy, a comma at a break is equivalent to a period or semi-colon, roughly), but also, if a subsequent line has a “back-enjambed” line through caesura (i.e., when a word or phrase is set off alone at the start of a line, forcing the reader to read it both as part of the preceding syntax AND as itself alone) the effect is often to create speed to that line whose phrasing may create a double-entendre, in addition to being emphatic. Anyhow, there have been many, many uses invented for this technique since Merwin famously introduced it into his work. After nearly half a century it's become a standard convention.

How do you write a summary of a poem?

Ask yourself this question first:What is the main point of the poem?How is the poem structures?What does the author use to bring us to this main point?What is the overall tone of the poem?I’ll give you a quick example of a popular poem by Robert Frost:“In his three stanza poem, “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening,” Robert Frost paints a picture with contrast images of light and darknesses to show a dilemma of a man who is in the middle of the woods during a snowstorm. At first, the man considers stopping and staying in the woods because it is so peaceful. However, his horse alerts him to the fact that he has many things left to do in his life. While many people see this poem as a peaceful scene, some look at the images of darkness and see a man faced with a troubling problem and the woods could be his escape.”As you can see, I mentioned the structure, the theme, the images, and the conflict, which is included in most poetry.I hope this helps.
