Cmon now, you guys had to see this coming [img]smile.gif[/img]
For the technical english people, help me out! I need diction, style, tone, and theme of this poem: The Scream I was walking along a path with two friends the sun was setting i felt a breath of melancholy suddenly the sky turned blood-red I stopped and leant against the railing deathly tired look out across the clouds that hung like- blood and a sword over the deep blue fjord and town My friends walked on- I stood there trembling with anxiety and I felt a great, infinite scream pass through nature Now, thats as tough as i've ever seen, and im out of practice. Plus, i havnt done this with poetry b4. Who can help me? [img]smile.gif[/img]

I have identified without any hint of uncertainty that this is indeed a poem. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Beyond that, I'm not qualified to answer, really. You might get lucky if Mel's about though. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Got me thinking that poem did, I suppose it could be about any number of things, depends how you interpret it I guess. For me though it seems to represent a journey or a path through life ...perhaps something terrible has happend or things arn't going the way they were intended. I'm not really qualified to help you though so everything I'm saying is probably total crap to an English student type.
