Poem Analyzation?
I know this isn’t a topic for this app but I don’t really have anyone else I could ask. I have to write a reflection about this poem for English class and I just can’t decode it for the life of me. I have to summarize the main idea of the poem and state what I learned about the author from the poem.. if anyone could put some ideas that would really help. It’s by Yehuda Amichai.
When I banged my head on the door, I screamed,
“My head, my head,” and I screamed, “Door, door,”
and I didn’t scream “Mama” and I didn’t scream “God.”
And I didn’t prophesy a world at the End of Days
where there will be no more heads and doors.
When you stroked my head, I whispered,
“My head, my head,” and I whispered, “Your hand, your hand,”
and I didn’t whisper “Mama” or “God.”
And I didn’t have miraculous visions
of hands stroking heads in the heavens
as they split wide open.
Whatever I scream or say or whisper is only
to console myself: My head, my head.
Door, door. Your hand, your hand.
