      <description><![CDATA[I need help analzing a few poems. The first one is &quot;America&quot; by Claude McKay. 
Specifically Connations, tone  and theme and paradox of his love and &quot;her hate&quot;.  
What biblical implication does bread of bitterness have?
What does the autor mean by the phrase &quot;cultured hell&quot;? 
Explain why, for McKay, the juxtaposition of words like these adds to the depth of his ironic lament.
It is implies by McKay that the same elements that brought down Ozmandias and his civilization will bring down America.  Describe those elements and offer an evaluation.

I am totally green at analzing poetry and would really like to know how to do it.  Any comments would be appreciated.

      <description><![CDATA[
THE OWL
Edward Thomas (1878-1917)

Downhill I came, hungry, and yet not starved;
Cold, yet had heat within me that was proof
Against the North wind; tired, yet so that rest
Had seemed the sweetest thing under a roof.

Then, at the inn I had food, fire, and rest,
Knowing how hungry, cold and tired was I.
All of the night was quite barred out except
An owl's cry, a most melancholy cry

Shaken out long and clear upon the hill,
No merry note, nor cause of merriment.
But one telling me plain what I escaped
And others could not, that night, as in I went.

And salted was my food, and my repose,
Salted and sobered, too, by the bird's voice
Speaking for all who lay under the stars,
Soldiers and poor, unable to rejoice.


Start with form and meter used, then mention rhyme scheme, and go into depth about the message the author wishes to convey. Find the differenced between 'accentual' and 'syllabic' rhythm.

As an aside, I read that Edward Thomas was the *real* inspiration for Robert Frost's poem, The Road Less Traveled. That is, in their walks together, Thomas was always dissatisfied they had not taken a different route.]]></description>
