Written By: William Carlos Williams “A Bastard Peace” Written By: William Carlos Williams

Thesis: William uses imagery to involve his audience within his writing, to imagine a picture in mind of how poverty appears. There is always room for transformation though, never give up hope.

Language Imagery Symbols White Butterfly represents transformation and purity. The speaker sends out the message that there is still hope for the community that they are trapped in, there is hope for the whole society to transform itself out of poverty and into something greater. A dandelion was a connection with the symbol of the white butterfly because a dandelion represents strong willed an wishes. Therefore, leading to the assumption that the speaker talks of there still being hope for the society. The children represent hope throughout the poem because since the adults don’t have jobs anymore and the children are the only ones attending school, they seem to have a better future then there parents.

Structure Ended Stopped: “-” Breaks at the end of each 4th line. Uses numbers. Stanza: 4 Lines per stanza This affects the way the reader reads the poem, with these dashes is stimulates breaks within the poem making the reader to take a breath after the dash in the stanza. Each stanza begins with a capitalized word except first and last stanza

Technique/Style Juxtaposition: When contrast is being shown by placing two items side by side of each other. Theme: Main idea/message  Trapped inside a poor society Tone: positive  Speaker views the poor society, but yet still seems to have some hope in the trapped community through the children and the language throughout the poem. Mood: The mood of the poem is set off by the tone in the speaker because however the speaker speaks it sets an automatic feeling on how the speaker felt towards poverty and what they had to view and describe. Point of view: First and third-person perspectives

Sound Rhythm: In line lengths Rhyme scheme within stanzas. Alliteration: Consonant sounds repeated throughout the poem. Put exclamation marks within some parts of the poem to make the reader read the poem in a loud voice

A Bastard The word Bastard has two meanings. One is the son born from an unmarried couple. Another meaning is false, untrue The poem is abut false peace, because there not really living in peace.

Activity The poem is about a poor environment and people living in poverty compare this to a book or a movie that is similar to the poem.
