Question

Instructions: Write a three-stanza poem using literary devices and techniques. The content of the poem shares your insights and reaction about the literary work "Apocalypse". (Another sheets of paper)​

Answer 1

Amid the chaos, smoke and screams,

The Apocalypse brings forth its reams,

Of terror, death and anguish in extremes.

Famine, war, and pestilence,

A world devoid of all reverence,

Ravaged by man's malevolence.

Yet in the darkness, hope still lies,

As the last vestiges of humanity tries,

To rise above the ashes and the lies.

In the end, the cycle will start anew,

A world reborn, pure and true,

As humanity finds its way through.

In this poem, I have used several literary devices, including alliteration, imagery, and metaphor. The use of alliteration in the first line of the first stanza, "chaos, smoke, and screams," creates a sense of chaos and confusion. The use of imagery throughout the poem paints a picture of a world in ruin, with phrases such as "ravaged by man's malevolence." Lastly, the metaphor of a world reborn, "pure and true," serves to create a sense of optimism in the midst of destruction.
