(Choose one of the strong examples of IMAGERY in the poem. Explain the poet’s purpose in choosing those particular words to “paint a picture” in the reader’s mind.) I cannot teach this book. Instead,
I drop copies on their desks,
like bombs on sleeping towns,
and let them read. So do I, again.
The stench rises from the page
and chokes my throat.
The ghosts of burning babies
haunt my eyes.
And that bouncing abaton,
that pointer of Death,
stabs me in the heart
as it sends his mother
to the blackening sky.
Nothing is destroyed
the laws of science say,
only changed.
The millions transformed into
precious smoke ride the wind
to fill our lungs and hearts
with their cries.
No, I cannot teach this book.
I simply want the words
to burn their comfortable souls
and leave them scarred for life.

-Thomas E. Thornton

i dont understand the question you are asking

the grass-plot before the jail, in prison lane, on a certain summer morning, not less than two centuries ago, was occupied by a pretty large number of the inhabitants of boston; all with their eyes intently fastened on the iron-clamped oaken door.

— the scarlet letter,

nathaniel hawthorne

''eyes intently fastened''

''iron-clamped oaken door''

are the answers

sometimes we look at a photo and miss on important information because we don't know all the facts or don't have the complete story behind it. captions give viewers important and relevant information about the photo. most of the time we will look at the photo for a second time after reading the caption under the photo and then find something different or new about it. this visual trip is also known as a loop.

captions differ from descriptions because they're meant to be read by someone else while descriptions contain basic information that will anyone who is working with them.
