Dude J-Dawg this guy is really [expletive delelted]ing emo and I have to say that I am kind of digging him. Now while the other romantic poets were all like “ohh flowers is so purdy” this guy is all like “ dude were all going to die and that suck like a bunch”. Now moving beyond my Totally Kyle inspired representations of exceedingly profound masters of the English language I do rather enjoy this dude’s take on the concepts of romanticism. One thing that seems to pop up with this guy more than any of the other romantic poets is that he utilizes significantly more sensual imagery particularly in "Ode to a Nightingale”, and well since I mentioned it might as well talk about it (mostly because I am entirely too lazy to go look up the names of the other poems. One thing I notice is that in this ode, Keats focuses on immediate, concrete sensations and emotions such as frequent use of the image of the color green. But another thing I find intriqing about this poem is how seemingly melancholic it is especially in the Eighth stanza were it repeats the word “forlorn” eight hundred trillion billion times. Also the way in which he tries to separate himself the pain of reality, the poet begins to move into a world of imagination or fantasy. His purpose is clearly not to get drunk. Rather he associates wine with some quality or state he is seeking
