5. Binder p. 17 How does tone affect meaning? – The tones of this poem show how the meaning of the poem changes. We go from hopeful, to nervousness, to horror, and finally sadness. How does the author’s specific word choice help us understand the main message of the poem? – In the first stanza we see a little bit of hope in the “papaya still flecked with green.” Then we see an attempt at trying to keep and nurture that hope with it tasking “lovely dipped in chili salt.” Finally, we see the loss of hope as the “head falls,” and we are sad as we are “wet and crying.”
