This direct address gives a poem a relationship to develop. The object can be observed, praised, questioned, or challenged. Rather than treating every image as a code with one fixed answer, start with the speaker’s manner of approach. What is noticed first, and what sort of response does the voice appear to want?","spoiler":false,"evidence":[{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":54},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":55},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":62},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":108},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":109},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":131},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":132},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":141}],"anchor":"section-1"},{"title":"Repetition as a reading experience","body":"Rhyme and repeated forms of address are conspicuous in poems such as Dawn and Pain. They can make a voice sound insistent, songlike, or closely confined to one concern. Those effects are matters to test by reading, rather than labels that settle the poem in advance. Pay attention to changes inside a recurring pattern: a question may interrupt praise, or a familiar sound may accompany a different emphasis. No particular performance is required, but reading aloud is a useful way to encounter the sound of the writing.","spoiler":false,"evidence":[{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":1},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":2},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":6},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":10},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":386},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":387},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":390},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":402},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":409}],"anchor":"section-2"},{"title":"Everyday subjects beside larger questions","body":"A Simple Thing and Trusty Soup make relatively humble subjects worth attending to. Other titles, including What Is Sin and How The Money Flows, turn toward ethical and social questions. The collection therefore supports more than one route through its subjects. A reader can follow objects and sensations, trace repeated concerns, or compare a questioning voice with a voice that makes stronger assertions. The poems’ speakers should not automatically be identified with one another or taken as a complete statement of the author’s current views.","spoiler":false,"evidence":[{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":79},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":80},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":85},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":696},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":697},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":700},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":864},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":865},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":873},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":1053},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":1054},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":1061}],"anchor":"section-3"},{"title":"A collection interested in poetry itself","body":"Free from Rhyme, Be Brave, My Reader, and What Is Bad Poetry bring the reader or the craft of verse into the foreground. The visible use of rhyme in a poem concerned with its restrictions makes form part of the reading question. These pieces can be approached without expecting an instruction manual or a single definition of successful poetry. Consider how humour, exaggeration, address, and a deliberately sustained pattern shape the voice. The interest lies in what the poem does with a question as well as in the answer it appears to offer.","spoiler":false,"evidence":[{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":416},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":417},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":420},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":425},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":444},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":445},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":447},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":449},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":885},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":886},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":890},{"sourceFile":"(EBOOK) Haedian Poetry Volume I.docx","paragraph":894}],"anchor":"section-4"}],"questions":[],"entities":[]}
