What is the difference between prose and poetry?

City By Langston Hughes

Literary Elements C1 You read I read Use markers to create a list of words or phrases that describe the city. How does the author use those words and phrases to put a picture in your head? What do you “see” ? Why? Illustrate your vision of the poem based on the descriptive language used.

Inference C2 “In the evening the city/ goes to bed/hanging lights/ about its head” What does the author mean by these lines? What can be inferred?

Inference C2 Select which answer below best describes the quote. Explain using phrases from the text. It is a starry night. It is dark except for the streetlights. The author wants to sleep with a nightlight above his head. There are always lights on in the city.

Theme C3 How does the title give the reader a clue about the main idea of the poem? Explain using words from the poem. Work with a partner to create a bumper sticker that shows the theme of the poem.
