And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain (Poe) Dissonance A disruption of harmony or rhythm, for an intended jarring effect; sounds clash with each other. "The wind flung a magpie away and a black- Back gull bent like an iron bar slowly" (Ted Hughes, Wind ) Figure of Speech A non-literal use of language, such as metaphor or simile. Metaphor A figure of speech that compares two things (object, feeling, idea, place, sound, etc.), which are not literally applicable; often used to give the reader a richer understanding of the subject being described. 1
2 The moon was a salt lick For her cattle of darkness (Frank Stanford) Objective Correlative The technique of representing a particular emotion with symbols, images, actions, and events; used to evoke a desired emotional response in the reader. The piercing chill I feel: my dead wife s comb, in our bedroom, under my heel (Taniguchi Buson) Oxymoron A figure of speech that conjoins contradictory words. Examples: Act natural; pretty ugly; jumbo shrimp Personification A figure of speech in which a nonhuman thing is described as if it were a person. There was never a sound beside the wood but one, And that was my long scythe whispering to the ground. (Robert Frost, Mowing ) Simile A metaphor that uses as or like. What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun? Or festers like a sore And then run? (Langston Hughes, "A Dream Deferred") Symbol Something that represents or is a sign for something else. 2
3 Brown and barren in following poem represent growing old. Now the fields are brown and barren, Bitter autumn blows (Sarah Teasdale, Wild Asters ) FORMS Haiku The haiku form originated in Japan and follows the following structure: First Line 5 syllables Second Line 7 syllables Third Line 5 syllables Traditionally, the subject matter of haikus focused on an aspect of the natural world, and often juxtaposed two images or ideas. For example, in the following poem, the image of leaves and birds are compared. The last winter leaves Clinging to the black branches Explode into birds. -unknown Limerick Centuries old and almost always humorous, limericks became so popular in the 19th century that newspapers across the US and UK held weekly limerick-writing competitions. The Limerick Breakdown: Five lines A rhyme scheme of aabba (lines 1, 2, and 5 rhyme and lines 3 and 4 rhyme) Lines 1, 2 and 5 have 7-10 syllables and lines 3 and 4 have 5-7 syllables Is Algebra fruitless endeavor? It seems they ve been trying for ever To find x, y, and z And it s quite clear to me: 3
4 If they ve not found them yet then they'll never. (Graham Lester) Prose Poem Poetry that is not broke into lines, but is, instead, written in a series of sentences and paragraphs. Sonnet A classic form that has inspired poets for centuries, the traditional sonnet has 14 lines, each 10 syllables long. Its rhymes are arranged as either: ab ab, cdcd, efef, gg - English abba abba cdecde - Italian Spoken Word / Slam Poetry Poetry intended for live performance; roots in hip hop, rap, jazz, and folk; often focuses on contemporary issues, such as social justice, politics, and community. PARTS & PIECES Stanza A group of lines in a poem. Just like paragraph break, a space between stanzas can indicate a shift in time, tone, or thought; or indicate a pause.

Free Verse Poetry with lines that do not rhyme, or have a regular meter. Iamb A foot with one unaccented syllable followed by one accented syllable (the most common meter of poetry). In the words, belong and predict, the second syllable is typically accented, so they read belong and predict. Iambic Pentameter A line consisting of five iambs. And I do love thee: therefore, go with me; I'll give thee fairies to attend on thee, And they shall fetch thee jewels from the deep, And sing while thou on pressed flowers dost sleep (Shakespeare, A Mid Summer Night s Dream) 5
