Anna, I enjoyed reading your piece. I really liked how you not only clarified the meanings of each poem, but gave examples through texts that we have studied in the unit. I enjoyed the end sentence “…we have to deconstruct the poem before we can be enlightened by its message” as I feel this really encaptures the meaning of Opaque poetry in a few short words. Your quick and sharp analysis of both poems, accompanied with a short quote, made for an enjoyable read. To improve, I would suggest splitting the 1 paragraph into 2 paragraphs, 1 for transparent and 1 for opaque, to make it a bit easier on the eyes. All in all, a great piece of writing.
