The poem contains several lines that are made entirely of one-syllable words, which draw out the time it takes to read the line. Contrast lines 31-32 in “Nature, that washed her hands in milk” with lines 8 and 10 in Christopher Marlowe’s “The Passionate Shepherd to His Love” (p. 989).

In addition, the line also holds a visual separation between the two different images that

The thrust of the engine pushed the airplane forward. Small butterflies emerged in my stomach. Since my first time flying, I had always felt a high level of anxiety upon boarding. This particular flight was no different. However, my anxieties heightened by the news that Malaysian Airline fight 370 disappeared two days before. I tried my best to distract my anxieties with any irrelevant detail in my surroundings. I laid my head against the laminar tempered glass of the airline window. The faint chatter
