Can anyone identify poetry techniques in this poem I am teaching it to Year 9 Particularly Understand how a genre addresses its purpose through patterns of textual elements, such as structure, choice of language, character archetypes and settings, and apply these patterns in own texts ? Stage 5 new syllabus

[@flabioibarraa]
