This poem written by Diane Glancy, reflects her Native American heritage. Her father, a Cherokee man is the main character for the poem. She portrays the conflict between his native american identity and the westernized world in which he lives. The author implies that despite living disconnected from his traditions and working packing meat, her father remains Cherokee.
The author's feelings towards her father seem to be of love, respect and sadness. I find the poem nostalgic, and there seems to be a sense of being out of place in this world.
The conflict between her parents seems to fit the idea of the poem. Her father brings home hide and horns from work (representing his heritage), and her (western) mother rejects this. The author is just an observer in this poem.
The hide and horns are important, since some native americans relied heavily on the hide, meat and everything else provided by buffalos, which is also a theme in the poem.
Answer
Hi,
The writer uses poem structure, literary devices, tone mood and themes to make the poem such an intriguing one.
Explanation:
POEM STRUCTURE
The poem has 5 stanzas that are separated into 3 different line names the tercet. The poem is structurally formatted in such a way that the first line is the longest and the third line is the shortest in each stanza. Each of this sentences indicate the states of life(birth, life and death) and also it indicated the presence of the three goddess sisters: CLOTHO, ATROPOS and LACHERIS. It is narrated in the 3rd person by a semi omniscient narrator who is able to look into the mind of the man and understand and describe his motivation and action. There is no rhyme scheme although there is a continuous use of assonance

1. Allusion to the Greek MYTHOLOGY

Answer:
The first option.
Explanation:
It uses the words "He" and "We", which are correctly used within the sentences.
I think that it the second option. The words were borrowed into English along with concepts they describe. Since ballet was developed and refined in France, in order to make it more universal, the concepts and steps were given the French name. This makes it easier for everyone to come together.
Hope that helps!
I am dissatisfied with the service I received.
This is the better revision because the word choice is more specific to the topic of the letter. Also, the more professional tone distances herself from the manager and gives more her more authority. The original sentence sounds too informal. This would be problematic because the audience of the letter may see the author as whiny and complaining instead of a person who should be taken seriously and worth listening to.
