Another example of this is,”Into the jaws of Death, Into the mouth of Hell.”
The phrase "same song" is repeated throughout the poem, serving as a refrain that emphasizes the central theme of the poem. The repetition of this phrase conveys a sense of frustration and despair, as the speaker laments the fact that they feel trapped in a society that values conformity over individuality. The repetition also serves to unify the poem, giving it a sense of coherence and structure that reflects the speaker's desire for unity and harmony. Mora also makes use of sound devices to convey the emotions and ideas in the poem. For example, the poem is full of alliteration, with phrases like "red bird singing" and "black bird bickering" creating a sense of rhythm and musicality.
Furthermore the use of figurative language grabbed the reader's attention while demonstrating the importance of the power of words. The poem was short with three verses yet it was one of the impactful poems of the book. The words used were dark but significant which ended up making the readers relate back to their own life and makes them dive into similar feelings they have had. Power was shown through deep, sharp and cutting verses about loneliness. This specific theme was important to the book because without it people wouldn't be able to truly relate back to the
They put on their clothes as another part of their routine, but the putting things away adds to this clutter element we see towards the end of the poem.

Repetition is a strategy used to attract a person 's thoughtfulness regarding a sure thought. Consider school. On the off chance that an instructor needs to express what is on her mind, is she going to say it once? No, she is going to repeat it various times so it starts to sink in. The same works with the repeated verses in this epic.
Love is a task that can never be completely understood. No one knows how it happens. But everyone knows that it comes just as easily as air through an open window.
Repetition is when a word or phrase has already been said and is repeated throughout, in this case the poem. Brown states, “ It’s the 4th” (1).

The term “remember” runs, like a refrain throughout the sonnet. However, its power seems to decrease through the poem, rather as if the voice and memory of the speaker is fading from life. The word “remember” is repeated six times within the poem, which expresses the desire of a speaker whose hope is that her lover, will keep her memory alive beyond death. The repeated use of “remember” and “remember me” indicate the strength of the speaker’s desire to not be forgotten, although this forceful plea is relaxed at the end of the poem when the speaker acknowledges that the happiness of her beloved is ultimately the most important thing.
