In this week lesson, it made me understand more about poetry. How to understand when I’m reading poetry. Before this lesson, it also takes me a while to understand reading poetry, especially when I’m reading Shakespeare. When I was a kid, the only poem I love to watch with my grandma was a show called “Brave New Voice” on HBO. It was a show where a youth group compete in verbal battle to make it to Washington for the National Slam Poetry. In the video, Italian and Elizabeth Sonnets explained “how word, sound devices, and imagery affect mood, meaning and theme”. It also explained how there are two different types of sonnets. The Italian sonnet is 14 lines in length and follows a strict structure. It’s divided into two sections that deals with two different aspects of the same subject. The two sections are identified as octave and the sea state. Elizabethan sonnet contains three quatrains and rhyming couplet. It contains three sections of four lines each. The quatrains are followed by two lines that sum up the message of the sonnet of proved a comment by the poet.
