1. "Like a felon, like a man half-dead" - simile (comparison using like or as) "we, the survivors, do not flinch from anything, not from a single blow." - hyperbole (overstatement) used to emphasize the author and his peers' courage "We are the people without tears, straighter than you... more proud..." - hyperbole (overstatement) used to emphasize the author and his peers' callousness to suffering. 2. "Their flattery leaves me cold, my songs are not for them to praise." -The author is potentially stating that the refugees to left a seemingly war-torn land are not praised by he and the others that bravely remained. "dark is your path, wanderer; wormwood infects your foreign bread." - The author is expressing pity for those who left the seemingly war-torn land because they have a brutal journey ahead of them. 3. The theme is that those who stay firm through tough times and don't flee, but accept the challenges given to them are stronger persons and will be better off if they make it through their trials. A minor theme may be that loyal countrymen and women should protect their homeland rather than flee it. So patriotism and loyalty may be a minor theme. A second minor theme may be justice: "Surely the reckoning will be made after the passing of this cloud." This sentence indicates that once is all said and done, we that fought through the hardships will gain our reward. 4. "We are the people without tears" The speaker is likely someone enduring a conflict in his or her country who refuses to leave it despite hardships. His or her tone is determined, accusatory, and serious. The speaker is determined so survive whatever hardships his or her land faces, is accusing those who fled them, and is serious through his words as no humorous or light-hearted language is used. Good luck on your test, and try not to cram next time!
Poems for people who need help?
"The Only Way to Win" by Anonymous It takes a little courage And a little self-control ANd some grim determination, If you want to reach the goal. It takes a deal of striving, And a firm and stern-set chin, No matter what the battle, If you really want to win. There's no easy path to glory, There's no rosy road to fame. Life, however we may view it, Is no simple parlor game; But its prizes call for fighting, For endurance and for grit; For a rugged disposition And a "don't-know-when-to-quit." You must take a blow or give one, You must risk and you must lose, And expect that in the struggle You will suffer from the bruise. But you mustn't wince or falter, If a fight you once begin; Be a man and face the battle--- That's the only way to win. not a fan of "be a man" part. But in my life experience of interaction with the depressed (which is a lot, sad to say) poetry doesn't exactly pep them up. Try stuffing their time with a lot of fun activities that they always wanted to do. If you're too busy, you can end up forgetting that your life isn't too great.
A poem for poetry analysis?
Can someone just suggest to me a poem that deals with social issues that can be applied today? Must be by a British poet. I'm actually looking for something specific: I need a poem about minimalism by any British poet. I know that sounds tough, but my teacher will only consider it if it's British. My assignment is to write an analysis on any poem by a British author about something we can apply to a social issue. I have really good material for minimalism, but I can't seem to find a poem to match it. I know I should have done the poem searching before the paper body first, but I couldn't find anything. D: If there really isn't can someone just suggest to me a poem that deals with social issues that can be applied today? Must be by a British poet. (Yeah, I copy and pasted that part from the start.) Oh, and "The World Is Too Much With Us" cannot be used. We already took that up in class.
What is the issue of identity in this poem?
This morning I sat indolent and limp against a window pane and watched a frantic sparrow defying my lean cat. The cat was taut with leap and speed and stealth and strength. The bird had only poetry to wield and lost. Cats eat up grace with relish. But they are poets too and can create cunning and flights of terror with their eyes. A small shudder rippled down my flesh. Co I have wings of claws? ------Rosalie Fowler

Can you suggest me some social issues to write poetry about? I have covered marital rape, racism, abuse, and depression.
Most of the people would suggest Gender inequality, rapes, untouchability practices, religion, etc. But I would suggest something apart from all the commonly raised issues. Please try to address“Environmental concerns”“Community participation in bringing about social and political changes”“Health awareness”“Mental well being” (Although you have covered depression, there are other issues too).“Importance of education”“Child labour ““Sexual harassment”, etc.in your writings. These are some of the most prominent issues in the society today that hinder the overall development of the society as well the country. It may be a little difficult to write on such issues but I believe literature and poetry can play a big role in provoking the thoughts of the people. And that’s why these days, I am also trying to raise such issues in my writings and poetry.
Poem Help (Analyzing a Poem)?
Well I'm not really sure if this is right but this is my view on the poem: Themes I came up with: You can't fix what's broken. You can't return something to what it once was. Nothing can change what has just been said or done. 1.) I believe this poem is pretty much saying that whatever bad thing occured can't be fixed. One issue could be that a child has lost the trust of his/her parents.This poem raises the issue of some parents not being able to trust or confide in their children leading up to the children possibly running away or being bitter towards their parents. Later in the poem it states: "Though often you may pull me close again, You'll never hold your child." Which I believe this to mean that even if the parent does pull the child back in they won't have the same trust they had with their parents before. They would not be holding, in their arms, their child, now different. The childs mistakes can't be taken back. 2.) Well when it talks about the "womb" it may symbolize and enclosed space. Same with "bud". You can't return something once it has been taken away from that enclosed space. "You can't return the faint to the womb" Which pretty much can mean it's impossible to return something to that original state. "A bloom holds not the promise of a bud" A bloom can't hold the promise of a bud popping out because it was the bud who holds the promise of a bloom. This sentece can also signify that it's impossible to return something to it's original state. Hope you understand my thoughts.=] Good luck and hope I helped.
What is it in the Romantic poets that might have helped alleviate John Stuart Mill's mental health issues?
Meaning and purpose in Enlightenment thought tends to be very rationalistic and utilitarian. The thinking tends to be like a grid or like a syllogism.The meaning and purpose, particularly in terms of relationships in the Romantics.The importance of passion, desire, and longing in the RomanticsThe respect for nature in the Romantics.The respect for the creative and expressive in the Romantics.Perhaps even the respect for the spiritual in the RomanticsThe value for things eternal in the Romantics.Here’s a quick explanation:Mill’s malaise continued through 1826–7 (Capaldi 2004: 55ff.). Though such episodes were to recur throughout his life, his initial recovery was found in the poetry of the Romantics. A new side developed to Mill’s character, and he now emphasised the importance of the culture of the feelings as well as the need for social reform. Mill particularly valued Wordsworth during this period—though his new interests quickly led him to the work of Coleridge, Carlyle, and Goethe. Mill’s acquaintance with these thinkers gave him a lasting openness to Romantic thought—and an acute awareness that the Enlightenment philosophy with which he had been brought up only contained “one side of the truth” (Autobiography, I: 169). His primary philosophic goal became, and would throughout his life remain, to integrate and reconcile these opposing schools of philosophy. “[W]hoever could master the premises and combine the methods of both, would possess the entire English philosophy of their age” (Coleridge, X: 121).
