Sam Lam Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hi, I really need some help analyzing my poem for my essay. I am doing the poem 'The Onion' By Wislawa Szymborska and I lost my book with all the analysis and I really need it asap! Can someone please help me? Thank You I have attached the poem below:It's really something, the onionIt doesn't have entrails.It is itself, through and through,all of it just onion.Onionlike on the outside,oniony to the core,the onion could look into itselfwithout any fear.In us lurks the strange and the wildbarely covered by the skin.In us, an inferno of guts,violent anatomy.In the onion, nothing but the onion,no twisted intestines,Undressed many times, it repeats itselfto its depths.A consistent creature, the onion,a well-made thing.Inside one, simply another,in a larger, a smaller,and in the next, the next.Centrifugal fugue.Echo in unison.The onion, I do appreciate it:the prettiest belly in the world.It wears halosfor its own glory.In us, fat, nerves, veins,valves, and secrets.For us it's unattainable,the idiotism of perfection.Thanks again )) Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
