Poetry Analysis Essay Poetry Analysis Essay Essay will examine the style of a poet we have read together in class. In this essay, you will you analyze the poet's use of literary elements (parts of the poem and figures of speech) and use this analysis to interpret the style of the author. In other words, what is a good description of the poet's style and what are two elements that are used similarly in the poetry that help to contribute to that style?
