The Fish By Elizabeth Bishop
We usually see the world around us how we want to see. However same of us see the world different way.For example, in the Fish poem if someone would show us a picture of fishing person we would say only there is a guy or women fishing however on Elizabeth's eyes actually we can imagine how a fish dies in our hands and how it feels. I think Elizabeth wrote very nice poem which includes many social messages such as everybody deserve to live in this world.

Ok--try to "unpack" the poem's imagery in more detail. One of the poem's main conflicts may be traced in the way its imagery both demonstrates our appropriation of the world--the non-human other--for the purpose of attributing human value'siginficance to it, and calls this act of appropriation into question. See my comments on other blogs, current and previous, and review study sheets on Blackboard, which will help open this poem for you
