Intro to Poetry

Questions about "Out Beyond Ideas"

1. What is the significance of the title?
"Out Beyond Ideas" could be a resemblance of the world's thinking and the mindset set forth by all areas of culture.
2. What is the tone of the poem?
Tone is reminiscing and incredulous
3. What is your mood as you read it?
The poem seems morbid when I think about the souls beneath the field and symbolizing something other than the greater good.
4. Is there a shift? Where? From what to what?
I don't there is a shift. There's a straightforward response from what's right and what's wrong.
5. What is the theme of the poem?
Questions are sought to be answered, but the dead carry away those thoughts and beliefs with questions unanswered in a world they sought to belong to

The point of the questions is to get the gist of interpreting a poem. Readers have to acknowledge their stand point and pick the smallest things that make up the thousand different images. I understand that these questions asked make aims for simple wording and connotations of each line.
