    1. I should have been a pair of ragged claws Scuttling across the floors of silent seas.

      In the poem, the main character is seen as a bad person on the out side. He notes earlier that people only notice how his hair is growing thin and he is extremely skinny. People around him do not treat him like he should be treated. In this line, I think he is saying that he might as well be the ugly monster on the inside and out. Then people would have a right to judge him.

    2. To wonder, “Do I dare?” and, “Do I dare?”

      Often times, there will be many occasions where someone will wonder if they should dare to do or try something. This line "Do I dare?" relates back to any reader because people often question their actions before completing them. In this poem, I wonder what he is considering doing.

    3. In the room the women come and go Talking of Michelangelo.

      This is the second time this line appears in the poem. This makes me wonder why it is used more than once. What is the reason for Michelangelo to be brought up twice. Also why is Talking capitalized.
