I think that there are quite a few areas I should work on for analysing a poem as I didn’t do as well of a job as I have done before. One of the things that I need to do is be more clear about what my topic sentences are. I need to have my points beforehand so that my ideas don’t stray. I should also constantly remind myself of the importance of sticking to the PEA format. I would also think that I need to have a better grasp of the different literary devices, as I only focused on connotation, which held me back from all the other devices I could have used.   I also forgot to mention the title and poet which was unpardonable of me!
