Overall comparisonTo conclude, I think both poems address the issue of power very well. In living space, the poem opens up with a factual explanation of the situation. The speaker describes the physical features of the buildings to show what the place is like without being overly emotional to get straight to the point which I like because it addresses the reader to tell them that this is a problem that can be helped. This is emphasized by the "eggs" which is a metaphor suggesting hope for improvement and inspires the reader to help those "squeezed" into a living space. The poem London helps to convey an image of what life was like in 1794, when the poem was written. The regular rhyme scheme suggests that what Blake sees is a regular occurrence and this makes me feel involved in what he sees. Overall, both poems convey similar emotions. |
