Literary Terms Implied Metaphor (p. 910) – a comparison between two unlike things that is implied, or suggested, but not directly stated

Randall Jarrell (p. 909) In his poetry he often took the part of the dead who sought to understand the reasons for their deaths Often presents dead as children who have barely learned the meaning of life before dying

“The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner” (p. 910) These five lines, written in 1945, make up the most famous poem to come out of World War II.
