A Bastard Peace

Thesis statement Williams uses this poem to express his view on poverty and even though the expressed characters live in tough times, there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Sense/Senses White butterfly/daffodil: meaning of positivity The white butterfly means the peace within the poor community, or at least the peace that can withheld within that community. The daffodil means that the peace can be the rebirth for them, for a new hope, for a new tomorrow. The boy represents the dream of having better materials to work the fields, an easier way of living (ex: pretending to whip a cow). He wants to live a better tomorrow than the one that has been happening throughout the poem, a negative one. White butterfly/daffodil: meaning of positivity white = positivity, peaceful, purity, optimism boy = dreams daffodil = rebirth, new beginning, hope Other: Third person POV Mood: sad, heavy in the heart, but optimistic at the end Theme: “light at the end of the tunnel” perspective

Style Enjambment, third stanza Overall negative tone EX: Down the center’s a service path/graced on one side by/a dandelion in bloom- and a white/butterfly- Overall negative tone To show example of the struggles of poverty, using negative and/or unhappy adjectives and some verbs. Irony: used within title, because bastard is negative but peace is positive

Structure Dashes causes awkward pauses in poem, no fluidity through the words EX: --where a heavy A long cinder-field by the river-- Enjambment throughout poem See style as example Dashes breaks poem apart and takes breaks in between what should be full sentences

Sound Alliteration throughout poem Slant rhyming Alliteration: use of the same consonant sounds in words that are near each other. EX: ‘by’ and ‘white’ Slant rhyming Slant rhyming: words that come near rhyming, but do not really rhyme examples: ‘by’ and ‘butterfly’, ‘blows’ and ‘goes’

Class activity Find an example, could be from a film, book, or even your own life, that can be compared with this poem and tell your partner and explain why do you believe it is a good example. Then your partner finds another example. Do this until time is up!
