In this song, I notice many techniques that we use in class. After reading the lyrics to this song, I noticed one technique right off the back. The caesura technique is used throughout this whole song. I have spotted many commas throughout the middle of the lines in this song. Although the lyrics are meant to be sung, they would make a great poetry entry.
Also, I see a phrase that is in the chorus that is very hard to say over and over again. In another words, its a tongue twister. "Under my Umbrella ella ella" is very hard to say over and over again. This song is a very good poem and I don't think it was even meant to be one! If read right, this song can display many of the techniques we have learned in class.
I love this song Wayne! Great job noticing the caesura and etc. I think that you are understanding the poem section very well.
