hazel tells laverne

the poem uses irony because you would think that the lady would kiss the frog because he says he will make her into a princess but instead he flushes the frog down the toilet.

reading habits

1. the phases of his life seam to start with highschool or somthing because he could still be a jock or deal the right even with keeping his nose in a book alot. then he moves on to be and the middle stansa he seemes to be in coladge.
2. i think he is an average guy who might be kind of a nerd but he can be a people person sometimes. he reads fanticy books and seemes to get into them

reading 4/8

4. about half way through the poem the speakers attitude changes about the girl. In the first part of the poem he is envyous of the girl. he says she is polular at all the dances she got her diploma and is smart, but after that his mood changes to feeling pittly twards her. He says that her husband died and the kids have moved out, and she was just trying to kill time.

2. that language is apropriate i guess because he is nether white nor black. He is somwhere probly in the middle of the wealth levels of the parents.

storm windows

“Storm windows” By Howard Nemerov’s ambition. Setting of the poem is late fall, as shown by the putting up of the storm windows and the wintry rain. The speaker may be the author but is a person returning home from somewhere. He notices the storm windows “lying on the ground/” while looking at the windows he is reminded of something he wanted to, say to someone close to him. Possibly a love interest. The tone of the poem is sad and remorseful, like when someone loses someone. There is mention of “missed desires” and a “lonely afternoon.” The theme of the poem might be to say what’s on your mind before it’s to late.

poem questions

2. gas gas isn’t very poetic also the old lie is kindof a weird last thing

1. I think the two speakers are a mother and douter/son or a host and guest. I think the situation is that the host of mother is going out and leaving the kid of guest at home it is probly the first time because the first speaker is speaking allowed and the second is speaking in its head hence the parenthecies

doll house 54-61

At first I didn’t couldn’t tell if mrs lind and krogsdad were married and had gotten devored then it became clear that they were getting back together. It is also odd that nora teases torvald and doesn’t want the attention at night. Also Its very weird that rank would knock on their door probly hoping 2 see nora again but he gets owned to.
