I can explore how Heaney uses structure and form to present ideas about power and conflict.
Muuji qoraalka
Conflict between nature and man seems to be a 'big idea' in the poem.
The speaker opens with a confident assertion but becomes increasingly insecure and powerless as the storm progresses.
The use of enjambment, volta, lack of rhyme and single stanza form may reflect nature’s omnipotence.
Iambic pentameter, colloquialisms and oxymorons may reflect speaker’s attempt to stay calm and confident in the storm.
The use of half-rhyme may reflect the speaker’s futile attempts to assert control over nature.
