How does word choice affect the mood of the poem "apostrophe to man" ?

Here is the answer of the given question above.
Based on the poem "Apostrophe to Man" by Edna St. Vincent Millay, the writer used negative words all throughout her poem which expresses a strongly negative connotation in it. One word that is being used throughout the poem is the word "detestable". Also, she uses the word "breed" which generally applies to animals, not humans, reinforcing our bestiality. Other words include "bombing", "bewildered" and "distracted". Hope this answer helps.
