24 levi ojeda

After a hundred years Nobody knows the place,--Agony, that enacted there,Motionless as peace. Weeds triumphant ranged,Strangers strolled and spelled At the lone orthography Of the elder dead. Winds of summer fields Recollect the way,--Instinct picking up the key Dropped by memory.


1. no repeated words
2. weeds triumphant ranged, strangers strolled and spelled.
3. instinct picking up the key: means how fast your instincts react to something important. motionless as peace: it is quiet and still like peace. Dropped by memory: is like something bad happened because of you memory.
4. there is no rhythm or rhyme
5. she explain her theory of hundred years from now
6. I like the poem I love the words she uses




I died for beauty but was scarce Adjusted in the tomb,When one who died for truth was lain In an adjoining room. He questioned softly why I failed?"For beauty," I replied."And I for truth,--the two are one;We brethren are," he said. And so, as kinsmen met a night,We talked between the rooms,Until the moss had reached our lips,And covered up our names.


1. “died” that word is repeated cause she is saying that she will DIE for beauty
2. he questioned softly why I failed, we talked between the rooms, until the moss had reached or lips, and covered up or names
3. in a adjoining room
4. there is no rhythm or rhyme
5. she thinks she is ugly and wants to die for beauty but there is a man who loves her
6.the poem is alright I think it showed have more rhythm and rhyme


A door just opened on a street--
I, lost, was passing by--
An instant's width of warmth disclosed
And wealth, and company.

The door as sudden shut, and I,
I, lost, was passing by,--
Lost doubly, but by contrast most,
Enlightening misery.

1. "door" "lost" she explains about a do opening and closing and she lost something
2. "A door just opened on a street" " the door as sudden shut"
3.And wealth,and company: means the important things in life, A door just opened on a street: means she lost something good
4. there is a little rhythm
5. when you do something bad you loose something when you do something goo you gain something good
6.i like how she used the open and closed door as a metaphor

Ample make this bed.
Make this bed with awe;
In it wait till judgment break
Excellent and fair.

Be its mattress straight,
Be its pillow round;
Let no sunrise' yellow noise
Interrupt this ground.

1. "bed" she is saying make my bed good
2. "ample make this bed" "make this bed with awe"
3. be its mattress straight: guide me thought the night, be its pillow round: comfort me thought the night
4. there is rhyme in the 2nd stanza
5. Guide me though the rest of my life
6.the only thing i didn't get was the part where she said "be its mattress straight"

A long, long sleep, a famous sleep
That makes no show for dawn
By strech of limb or stir of lid, --
An independent one.

Was ever idleness like this?
Within a hut of stone
To bask the centuries away
Nor once look up for noon?

1. "long" "sleep"
2. "A long, long sleep, a famous sleep"
3. That makes no show for dawn: you sleep past dawn
4. there is no rhythm or rhyme
5. sleeping in is a good thing
6. what is "limb"?
