Men At Forty

Men at 40 is a very well written poem so clearly the diction was chosen well. There are so many things that can be considered diction when writing like if you want to be more aesthetical which means you write to appeal to the senses or you have the choice to slang it emotional of even secret so only the few measurement of people who have the proper knowledge to understand it do. A dyad of words that describe how this poem was written are precise, emotional, abstruse and esoteric could even tie in with that.Precise writing is marked by exactness or accuracy and Men at Forty in my look is very accurate. I do believe that what Donald writes about is exactly what happens in one case a man arouses to forty. In the first stanza it says Men at Forty Learn to close softly The doors to rooms they will not be Coming back to. This is a metaphor about how since he is elder he must come to terms with the fact that he cogency never reach some of his goals in life. Emotion is a volumi nous part of writing because whats the point in writing if on that point is no emotion.No one will even want to read your writing because they get bored easily with it. In stanza 3 it states And deep in mirrors They disc all over The face of the boy as he practices tying His fathers tie there in secret this is very emotional because the man Is looking in the mirror and he still feels young but that is on the inside(a) the outside shows he is growing aged, and no one likes growing old because its a sad reality that we are getting proximate and closer to death. This poem can be very abstruse because It could go over some peoples head.
