1) I see two lovers saying goodbye for the last time. The tone is kind of sad
2) Yes, as you read further the mood changes to relief. It seems like the speaker wanted out of the relationship.
3) The speaker keeps repeating this because he is trying to get used to the new feelings and is not used to it, and is trying to convincee himself its over.
4) I would feel betrayed as if there was never love at all.
5) The last 6 lines makes it seem like the relationship was never all that bad but still had small troubles.
6) The "you" in the poem is the person who the poem was written too.
7)This information makes it seem like the guy was a little too obsessed with his former love and this poem was him trying to make it seem reel in his mind because nothing else was working.
1) The first paragraph reminds me of family vacations i used to go on where we would go camping. i feel like the dog could be more of an indoor dog and the lady is more used to the wilderness so she is more of the protector.
2) paragraphs 3-6 make the mood more tense and frightened compared to the relaxed tone of paragraphs 1-2.
3) the statement makes the suspense build up and makes me wait fir something bad to happen. that is natural reaction for a person to cover up when scared or worried.
4) paragraphs 12-16 show that bears are something that used to be very close to her but not as much at this point.
5)the construction of the porch and movement of the sofa out there is to get her closer to nature and further from the smell of the bear possibly. the bear might be "him" because she has no man in her life.
6) all of the stories about bears bring about death which makes you think of this bear as a sign of death.
7) there is an X on summer days because the bears are not hibernating.
8) in paragraphs 32-41 it was frightening to have the bear going after her and reliving to see her kill the bear.
9) no because of her obsession with bears throughout the whole story
