Plzzz

1.) compare and contrast the 2 poems
2.) how does each poet use form to create meaning?
3.) how does the form affect the poem?

poems: i dwell in possibility & do not go gentle into that good night

do not go gentle into that good night:

do not go gentle into that good night,
old age should burn and rave at close of day;
rage, rage against the dying of the light.

though wise men at their end know dark is right,
because their words had forked no lightning they
do not go gentle into that good night.

good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
rage, rage against the dying of the light.

wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
and learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
do not go gentle into that good night.

grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
rage, rage against the dying of the light.

and you, my father, there on the sad height,
curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, i pray.
do not go gentle into that good night.
rage, rage against the dying of the light.

i dwell in possibility:

i dwell in possibility –
a fairer house than prose –
more numerous of windows –
superior – for doors –

of chambers as the cedars –
impregnable of eye –
and for an everlasting roof
the gambrels of the sky –

of visitors – the fairest –
for occupation – this –
the spreading wide my narrow hands
to gather paradise –

Compare:

So, the comparison would be that they both seem to be dealing with dark times and how they're dealing with the emotions they're feeling.

Contrast:

So, the contrast would be that the 1 poem says they're dwelling with chaos that's going on and the other seems to let the rage go.

The poet for the 'Do not go gentle into that good night' seem to be using they're POV to express the way they feel and how much anger they're letting out.

The poet for 'I dwell in Possibility' seems to be talking about how they manage with they're problems and think of positive ways to address them while pushing the negativity away.

The forms for these poems seem to be very powerful and (advice-giving -- 'I dwell in possibility') and how they seem to express the way they feel.

Hope this helps

1. I would say they both have a message of possibility, what could be.  In contrast, "I Dwell in Possibility" is looking beyond the black and white of life, look for the color and all the opportunities beyond.  "Do Not Go Gentle" is a persuasion to fight with all you've got, to not go easily, don't slip away.

2. I DWELL IN POSSIBILITY: The poem is written in iambic tetrameter.  The beginning of the poem follows the rules of this form very well, then gets crazy by the end.  Compare this to poetry: at first a poem is just black and white words on paper but while reading it can offer limitless opportunities to the imagination.

DO NOT GO GENTLE...: The form is villanelle, iambic pentameter.  Do not give in, the words say.  Fight with all you've got.  This message is repetitious throughout the poem, which repetition is found in iambic pentameter.

3. Together, content and form make meaning, which is the message the poet gives to the reader.
