@R9b1t what is the impression you have about the poem so far?
So oh geez can I just do the TP Cast later
because I have the vibe of a tumblr girl with a poetry blog
Anyway so I looked at the title and I thought the unknown, people you may not know
Someone you greet on the street to ask the time
Just when you think the japanese couldn't do anything weirder

also japanese hotdogs look....wrong
wtf do they put in them
I think I need to dig into the word choice of the poem later
what's that one book that was turned into a movie
something ending with wallpaper
MC is Charlie
The boy in the striped pajamas
perks of being a wallflower ?
anyway, it's like that. Although the author has a ton of things to say, at the same time she doesn't want to
so unwilling to put her voice out there that she forgot everything what made her unique
What I miss
even beyond death - if taken literally - she still didn't want to voice her opinions
I could see that in the story the narrator talks about a girl who doesn’t seem to tech out and is just waiting
And because she doesn’t reach out she’s just another random anon
Reach fuck me
Poem
Uhm I’m tired and I need to do the analysis
I wonder what the 'hey nonny' is in reference to
You can just call it a reach around
I think it’s just idle talk
but she did write her opinions - she just didn't express herself vocally
Like something you say out of boredom when you’ve nothing else to say
pen like a baton
not really tho
this reminds me of hardcore depression / anxiety
what she wants to express are truly deep and personal but she doesn't know how to approach it
"best verb, right noun" also like perfectionism
she wants to get her words just right so bad that she put herself into a situation where she is never truly satisfied with what she thinks/writes/says
another thing with the skull - even when these thoughts / situations pass, she *is still* trying to find the right thing to say
maybe I'm misunderstanding the poem, but that what it seems like imo
like michael jackson and his nose
Poems are broad and I think the head of English is a statement of how we interpret poems for a theme to prove something in school
good point.
Maybe anon is a statement of feminism because in the first stanza duffy mentions jobs taken up by women
