One of the things that is so fascinating about poetry is that it allows readers to discover and sometimes challenge and channel their emotions as well as their understanding. A poem’s words as well as its structure can reveal many things to its intended audience. In “Myth” by Natasha Trethewey, the poems form is just as important as the words she writes, becoming a map for the journey Trethewey takes, using transitions to take us from one place to another. The nature of the poem therefor becomes multifaceted, as it encourages the reader to think about the speaker’s words and use of form and structure she uses to craft this epic story. Using form as a tool, Trethewey is able to use structure as a way to guide us as readers and the speaker across the conscious and unconscious thoughts and dreams the speaker faces in this story.

In “Legend,” Marie Lu develops her entire plot on one symbolic archetype. This Archetype is Innate Wisdom vs. Educated Stupidity. In Legend, this symbolic archetype shows the relationship between the poor and the rich. The government has total control over the people. Day, from a poor civilian perspective, questions the Republic’s motives. With first-hand experience, Day has “innate wisdom”.

The other story is How to Train Your Dragon is similar with other supernatural events. Such as dragons and bugs. Despite having similar heroes, The Hobbit had a stronger Heroic Journey because there were more obstacles.

In the story “I Am Legend”, written by Richard Matheson, revealed a flashback in chapter six, which talked about Robert Neville’s family before the plague started. The flashback was very effective in chapter six because it reveals how plague started and showed us the severity of it.

She shook her head. “I don’t know.” “Between the storms and the mosquitoes and everyone being sick, life is rapidly becoming a pain.” This gives us some insight on how the virus may have been spread.
