Shanice Brown Discussion 11

My idea of poetry is the same I’m more in the middle depending on the poem. Some has broadened my ideas by triggering emotions while others made it more difficult to interpret because of the word choices used. Some poems are more cryptic instead of blunt because the use of literary device such as metaphor and symbols. When reading Emily Dickson metaphorical poem “The Wife” it made me feel different kinds of emotions when she expressed how married women were repressed and unhappy.
