Apparently I went waaay too specific last time in my efforts, so I'll tone it back this time. Remember, and learn from my mistakes--we're just lookin' at cool shit we see in pro work. So, I am going to tell you all about "SMILE! IT'S SCHOOL PICTURE TIME!" by Erica Meitner because she is soooooooo awesome. I can't read her enough. I just drink in the words and it's wonderful.
-- I like that the first stanza has nothing to do with the second stanza. It is a wonderful example of juggling.
-- I like that the final stanza goes back to the first stanza and makes the center stanza a kind of segue which puts the narrative in an understandable box.
-- enjambment from the end of the first stanza into the second. It hops stanzas, forces the first one to have a connection with the second. Almost like the reader wouldn't have known it had something to do with each other otherwise.
-- first part is very sexual
-- They learn about the body from a plastic skeleton--emphasis on the fact that it is not at all alive
Well, this is what I gots! Maybe there are more...
