A way to interpret peoms is by examining the following elements: imagery,comparison, diction, sound and tone?

use one of the following poems to discuss each of these elements.


The Forge


All I know is a door into the dark.


Outside, old axles and iron hoops rustling;


Inside, the hammered anvil%26#039;s short- pitched ring


The unpredictable fantail of sparks


Or hiss when a new shoe toughens in water.


The anvil must be somewhere in the centre,


Horned as a unicorn, at one end square,


Set there immoveable: an altar


where he expends himself in shape and music.


Soometimes, leather-aproned, hairs in hisnose,


He leans out on thejamb, recalls a clatter


Of hoofs where traffic is flashing in rows;


Then grunts and goes in, with a slam and flick


To beat real iron out, to work the bellows.

A way to interpret peoms is by examining the following elements: imagery,comparison, diction, sound and tone?
How about rhythm, rhyme and alliteration, basic sentence structure, use of punctuation, vocabulary choice, symbolism, text painting, and details like onomatopoeia?
