A. In what way is the form and rhyme scheme in Sylvia Plath’s poem Daddy so vital and ironic to the overall feel and point/meaning of the poem? Why does Plath use the metaphor of Nazi Germany and call herself a Jew?
B. Like Plath you will notice that Di Brandt’s form is also fitting of her content. In Di Brandt’s poetry how does form fit content in terms of her lifestyle choices and quest for truth and individuality?
C. In “The Long White” by Jan Beatty why is the narrator so vulnerable? Why has this girl been getting in cars with men all her life? And who is she truly looking for?
