Untiltled By Stephen Crane
I did the poem Untitled by Stephen Crane and it came to me as a sad poem or a poem where a person needs help. I see a person who is going through a hard time and does not know how to recover form his problem. In the poem they describe this person who is sitting in the desert eating his own heart as a creature, naked, and bestial. As he was eating his heart a second person enters the poem and sees the problemed person eating his heart and asks " Is it good friend?" The poor man answers "It is bitter-bitter," he answered "But I like it because it is bitter, and because it is my heart." As this is said i made me feel that his guy loved himself for who he was and even though he knew he did something wrong and no one can forgive him, he finds that his heart even though is bitter it fills him and forgives him as well. Now a bit of the structure of the poem, it is all one stanza with a total of 10 lines. It is broken up into two sentences by a period (.) The first sentence I believe it sets the setting and what is going to happen in the poem. As the second sentence approaches it has more dialect and tells why the poor helpless man is eating his heart. Have a Goooooooooooooooooooood day off!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mrs. White. :)
