NB+John+Keats

John Keats wrote the poem __Bright Star__, which is a poem that for me, confused me at first. I think that Keats meant for this poem to be hard to understand, not coming quickly to someone. His goal was to make people think about the poem, and interpret it the way they want to. It is different what he is trying to do, because with the semi-confusing vocabulary, and writing that doesn't make complete sense, he relies on the reader to understand the poem. The vocabulary that Keats uses can sometimes be "old fashion" such as his use of the word "thou". That adds to the confusion and the originality of the poem, which Keats intended to do, his goal. Though the poem may seem confusing at first, after re-reading it a couple of times, I started to understand it the way I think of it. What Keats does is he writes about one topic of beautiful bright star in the sky, in which is describes it and relates it to many thing. After a couple lines about the star, he switches topics and weaves into talking about not a beautiful star, but a beautiful women. Such as what he did on the first topic, he starts describing her and ending saying live forever, or fall to death.
