Unfamiliar Texts - Lament

In the poem titled ‘Lament’, the writer uses techniques like personification, metaphors, and more to express the deep sadness it felt through using perplexing lines and words which effectively match his emotions. The figures of speech are not just the typical shallow sentences and through poetry, the writer made a connection through it because the poem and his expression matched the words -- deep and perplexing. Writing poetry is just like how a painter uses his hands to paint his emotions on a canvas.
