I am writing an explicitation on "sheep in fog" and right now I am having a hard time organizing what techniques are being used and how, I have them all written down because when I read I wrote, but now I'm trying to backtrack, and it just doesn't seem to work.

The hills step off into whiteness. People or stars Regard me sadly, I disappoint them. The train leaves a line of breath. O slow Horse the color of rust, Hooves, dolorous bells - All morning the Morning has been blackening, A flower left out. My bones hold a stillness, the far Fields melt my heart. They threaten To let me through to a heaven Starless and fatherless, a dark water.

Hey! I don't mean to be rude, but I've been on here two times already, and those two times once again it was like people ignored my posts, lol I thought this was supposed to help people and just chat.

dude, I'm sorry I can't help you with this, because I'm still a student (I'm not able to pin point techniques too well) and that might be it with the others too...
You've gotta wait for people who are able to help you.

1. Personification: The train leaves a line of breath

that's all I could do for now...I'm sorry...

Well then I'll wait, but just to let you know I'm still a student too, but in an AP LIT class.

Can you explain those symbols that came up?
The first line is in a passive form to emphasise the dissapointment you give, right?

Whiteness? Well I see it would be the sign of a new beginning, but can be hard.

hehehe dont worry, lots of people in a hurry this time of year and a lot of threads that seem like "homework request threads" get ignored because we dont like doing work for people. This may have been the case with your thread here.

I (probably like others) am unfamiliar with the poem - Is it the 2nd para? It might help ifyou post it in line format then posters could be more able to help you.

If the 2nd para is the poem, I can help you pick out some techniques but first lets see what you have so far?
