It is a good poem which talks about how a world is doomed to fall apart and be rebuilt
u bugers r wrong this poem gives u a good meaning and u stupid ppl cant understand thts the prob
one of the literacy devices used is imagery. this would help the reader to picture the scenario going on. “Cruising these residential” the reader makes it seem like everything is calm and peaceful.
yup, the vocabulary used throughout really reflects what Atwood was trying to express. theres the vocabulary you mentioned at the start, which then shifts tone at the third line, where the narrator gets offended. its really interesting.
After reading a few of Margaret Atwood's 'poems', I see that they are not poems. At best they are poetic prose. This is like so much of what is called poetry since the 20th century. I attended a poetry slam recently and I doubt if there were any poems. Perhaps one or two, but my attention strayed. And one poor soul, I thought, how sad that he memorised his said 'poem' as he spouted it with a rap style voice.
