on My Papa's Waltz by Theodore Roethke, on November 6, 2005well yes i supose you are right about us never knowing unless we ask the poet but if you want to believe that no one can relate to abuse then go ahead. there is a fine line tho between optomistic and ignorant

on My Papa's Waltz by Theodore Roethke, on November 5, 2005i just thought i would point out that i would point out that Edgar A. Poe who is indeed a very very popular poet writes about things that aren't pretty. heart-break etc. also i'd like to point out william shakespear! he most famous plays are tragedies. you know the one's that don't have happy endings. i.e. othello romeo and juliet they don't have happy ending but yet the only thing that has been read more than shakespear is the bible. why are these tragedies so widely read when people don't like negative feelings?

no needto get **about it. it was just my oppinion and i have not been abused so please do not assume that about people. it's a pretty ** up thing to do. i am glad to see that other people agree with me. tho i already knew other's agreed with me because i also studied it in my english class and everyone seemed to agree that this poem is about abuse.
p.s. i am not a cutter and i donot write agnst poems see for yourself. donnot assume i read this poem and applied it to my life
expletives removed. (rufina)
