I WILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIEST OR WHAT EVER ITS CALLED* Write a poem on one of the following themes from The House on Mango
Street:
- Wanting to change one's life for the better
- Losing your identity / Feeling as if you do not fit in
- Importance and/or the influence of family
Write through your own point-of-view, either as a child or as an adult looking
back on your life
Do not take lines from the poems that we read in class, or that can be found
online.
Give your poem a title, and make sure you use some type of figurative
language in your writing.
Your poem must include the following:
- Must be typed
- At least one metaphor, simile, and personification
- A title, which can count as one of the figurative devices
- 15 + lines
- At least one rhyming couplet and at least one rhetorical question
- Attached to your poem is a typed, detailed description of the figurative
devices that you used in your poem. Do not just point them out. Explain what
they mean, what is being compared, and how they help to strengthen your
poem. Also, point out your rhetorical question and rhyming couplet. You are
only pointing these out, not analyzing them like the simile, metaphor, and
personification.
Create a picture for your poem. Make sure your picture correctly reflects the
tone of your poem.

can you show my a paragraph so i can read, then answer it? it would be thx!

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)

i believe that's the correct answer
