  • Use of imperative- conversational voice.
  • Only male dramatic monologue.
  • Tone: expectant and impatient.
  • Male voice controlled by the female poet.
  • He is telling us all the things he can't tell his wife.
  • Working class male love poem.
  • "Lowsan" "drouth"- these words make it more real.
