25 pages in length. Poetry is the expression of one's very soul. It encompasses a great many emotions, feelings, and desires that can range from one spectrum to the other. Often represented in poetry are rage, love, happiness, sorrow and despair. Poetry is an avenue for the author to release the inner struggles that can be set free through no other means than verse. It can be a catharsis to one's ailing heart as much as it can be a conduit between two otherwise strangers. Poetry is as diverse a means of communication as any medium, yet there are a vast array of elements that make up this very unique and specialized form of writing. The writer will address the many aspects of poetry as they relate to creating the poem. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

The use of a mirror as illusion/allusion in poetry is compelling, to say the least. The most obvious use of the imagery of the mirror is that it is a reflection of the author. A search in a mirror is ultimately a search for the self. The image that is important is that of the woman, not the child whose innocence has drowned in the depths of the lake; nor the old woman who is like a terrible fish. Most people have the desire to reminisce about the past and, or speculate on the future. It is important. This 4 page paper explores the multiple meanings of the imagery presented by Sylvia Plath in the poem, 'Mirror.' No additional sources cited.

Richard Cory would appear to be not that one who lived by appearances, but rather one who was born into the wealth that naturally gravitated to the lifestyle befitting true wealth and old, established wealth without giving so much as a hint of the pain within him.
