In at least one hundred words, explain how bart edelman uses structure at the begging of his poem “they shot wook kim” to convey one of the poem’s central themes. use evidence from the text to support your answer.

The poem "The Shot Wook Kim" by Bart Edelman describes the murder of an immigrant in the United States. The poem opens with a series of scattered, unorganized phrases across the page. These describe the day:

"Today was really beautiful. Sunshine, wind-whipped leaves, light rain in the afternoon before giving way to the sun again. I sat on the park bench with an empty leash in my hand, watching the kids and the dogs and the couples stroll and play."

The author most likely uses this structure to highlight the chaos and confusion that will dominate the poem. This is one of the poem's main themes. The death of Wook Kim was unnecessary and messy, and this is reflected in the messy nature of the poem. Moreover, the short sentences and scattered thoughts are meant to convey the feelings of isolation and confusion that can exist in the mind of an immigrant.

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.
