I like the way you broke down each stanza and did it that way. My literary piece like yours was about love. Yours however was unconditional love, and mine was a rocky bad relationship.
Something significant that stood out to me was that you point out that Cummings always wrote in the same pattern. It was interesting that some Modernism writers did this, but some did not. A similar factor between ours was that you listed a characteristic of Modernism being less emphasized on the past, and more on the present. However, yours was centered around love/relationships, while mine was in a very different genre.
Our writings are similar because the main character in my story falls in love with a woman as well. Before he ever met her there was something inside of him that loved the girl. This is similar in both of our writings because both of them were controlled by their unconscious minds.
Our poems are similar in the fact that they both broke down what we think and expand and explain on it, most likely because our poems are both written by E.E. Cummings. Yours is about love, while mine is about mother nature and earth as a whole. Th thing that stuck out to me was how Cummings "Nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals the power of your intense fragility." This unconditional love stuck out to me.
Like Ashley's comment, my poem also was about love. It is very interesting to see how each author uniquely portrays love through their literary work. My poem related to distance and love through a time of war.
It was really good that you broke down each stanza and related them all to modernism. Our writings were similar in the way that they represented Modernism. They were both based on the theme of love. It stood out to me that the Modernism was used in the description of the unconscious mind.
The theme of love seems to be a very common theme in Modernist period writing. The poem that I chose was not about love, however, but I believe that both are clear representations of Modernism. I was very interested in your "stanza-by-stanza" analysis. It gave a greater understanding of the poem and gave great detail as to how the poem was an example of Modernism writing.
The theme of love, while being a very common theme used in modernist works, my story did not contain much about love, besides when Sartoris tries to cover for his dad, even though he keeps ruining Sarty's life. I like the way that you broke down each stanza which gave it a more in-depth view of the poem.
