Theory of Love's Art
It’s only a theory
But if they say they’re in love,
are they truly in love?
Clutching pillow to breast
holding lover to soul.
Tell me it didn’t really matter;
Deep down it did Matter.
How useless I was.
Guardians-
Reveal our souls...
Reveal my soul!
We should start going back from now,
To when I was much younger,
holding a baby.
Madame;
With people much higher than her,
judging me.
Impossible to get it right every time.
I was on the point.
Tears in her eyes
for all her usual coldness,
she’d been moved.
She’d been watching me.
She was sorry for me.
She wanted to help me.
Really believe in me.
Sole purpose-
Of love.
People higher than her
taking away our art.
For a godforsaken Gallery.
Telling me deep down it mattered;
It really didn’t matter.
Dawning on me, with real chills,
I’d drifted off.
Swaying around,
imagining,
Our art and poetry.
I need something to go on-
But if my theory’s right,
I might have blown my chance.- Justify the use of the passage. What does it reveal about the effect of setting on character development?
This is one of the few scenes that Kathy is away from the effects and places of Hailsham and their plan for her. Here she is more open to more possibilities and reasons. As rumor flow around she becomes questioning of her life and actually becomes open to more sensitive topics here- but soon closes them off out of fear. She also returns back to this place at the end of the book in order to “find herself” again. - Justify the line breaks. How do these shifts contribute to the meaning of your new poem overall?
The lines breaks in the poem reflect how the dislodge between Kathy and Tommy go back forth- splitting up thought and theories. As well as the different attitudes of the speakers. The poem jumps from memory to conclusion in order to simplify the dialogue of the original passage. Though we have taken on a more hopefully somber tone than the original piece
- Which phrases have you chosen to delete, repeat, or combine?
Most of the fluff and unrepeated ideas in the passage we decided to cut out. While the main points talked about, like art, madame, art, souls, and meanings, as well as judging, was a constant reminder of how she was to fit in. We play this main element of fitting in and doing best into that of our poem. We repeated the theme of things mattering per opinions of others. With the constant battle of questioning what “mattered” or not.
- What is the complex meaning of your poem? How do your line breaks, shifts, punctuation, and repetition contribute to the complex meaning? The complexity now lies in the manner of which we reassemble the lines in order to format a story into the segmented dialogue of two people now into one drifting monolog. Instead of questioning the outside world, but the focus is to question of one’s self. As we shift between memories and constant thinking from self-perspective. The punctuation following the motions of emotions from questioning to demanding back into that of reposed questioning. Lines and ideas dwindling between each finished statement.
