In "The Carp," by Yun Wang, the use of the carp to represent something deeper is an example of Synecdoche. The carp is used to represent the pain and injustice of her father’s imprisonment. “The Carp is dedicated to Wang’s father, and many of the poems in her little book tell stories from that period.

1. <em>To tell the truth, I believe I could be happy doing nothing but reading old diaries morning to night</em>

2. <em>Aware of the shame I ought to feel - defecting so willingly from my own century - I stroll calmly through candlelit rooms and down to the quay,  to board a waiting vessel that sails with the tide into the finest clear night pssible</em>...

Explanation:

The Glittering Noise is a poem written by a British Poet by Denise Levertov.

The poem tends to speak intentionally about the writer who reveals what he likes doing (his hobby). Also, it reveals  the experiences of people in every era.

The two excerpts simply speak of how the writer feels and the actions that follow the feelings he has.  The effect of a confession these excerpts create depicts the writer's honesty in the experiences he passed through. It produces open-mindedness and down to earth.
