 studying tissue. Here's how you can analyse this poem. In terms of structure the poem is written as 10 stanzas, 9 of which are quatrains and the final is a one-line stanza. The poem begins by repeating the word paper and the repetition of this word reveals the power of paper as the central focus of this poem. The religious references to the Quran, followed by Sezure, shows that paper is used to shape people's religions. Rule of three emphasises our reliance on paper, not only in terms of teaching us our religion but also in storing and preserving our histories. The minor sentence and the sezure here shows how paper is really powerful in even forming and creating new countries. Ascendence and repetition here shows how paper is so central in creating things as enduring as buildings. Anjamumon is used here to highlight that whilst paper is powerful it's fragile and it creates things which are temporary. This final stanza shows that whilst paper shapes our lives and our identity it's ironically quite fragile.
