on her loving two equally
i thought the title for this poem was interesting and i dwelled a bit on it before reading the actual poem. it caught my eye becuase of the way it is structured. we don't normally see words phrased like these. the poem has a dramatic tone. the speaker is caught between loving two men. she can't make up her mind which she wants to be with. the poem is structured in a unique way in which she numbers her stanzas. this makes me think that the speaker is having three complete and different thoughts. when i read the poem i got an image of a woman musing over two men, thinking and daydreaming about it at random intervals. the first two stanzas seem more connected than the third one. in the third stanza the speaker seems cross and desperate about deciding which boy she wants to be with.
