THE MOOD OF THE POEM WOULD BE LONLiNESS ,SADNESS , AND GUILT.
EXAMPLES OF DEVISES TO SET THE MOOD WOULD BE 'I HAVE" AND NOT JUST.
HE HAVE SAID I HAVE BEEN ONE ACQUAINTED WITH NIGHT. HE WOULD USE HARDSHIP A PERSON FACES THROUGH THEIR LIVES . PERSONIFICATION SAYING THAT THE MOON "PROCLAIMS" THAT THE TIME IS "NEITHER WRONG NOR RIGHT LEAVING THE SPEAKER UNSATISFIED.
MIRROR
DETAILS THAT DESCRIBE THE SPEAKER WOULD BE SILVER AND EXACT WITH NO PRE-CONCEPTION.SHE'S NOT CRUEL , BUT TRUTHFUL. WHAT IS ACHIEVES BY PERSONIFYING A MIRROR SHE IS GIVING THE MIRROR HUMAN CHARACTERISTICS. SHE IS AFRAID THAT THE MIRROR AND THE LAKE WILL SOMEDAY SOON REFLECT THE SAME IMAGE . SYLVIA IS TRYING TO GET ACROSS THAT BEAUTY IS NICE , BUT SUPERFICIAL.
REVOLUTIONARY DREAMS
IN THE POEM REVOLUTIONARY DREAMS THE AUTHOR "ARGUES THAT A REVOLUTION WOULD TAKE PLACE IF SHE " DREAMED NATURAL DREAMS OF BEING A NATURAL WOMAN.
THIS POEM ALSO BRINGS FORTH THE THOUGHTS OF A BLACK WOMAN WHO WANTS TO ERASE AMERICA OF THE HATRED AND WRONG IT HAS DONE TO THE BLACK PEOPLE
