Please Help. The Mosquito Poem by Nobody: 9:39am On Feb 27, 2018
What is the dominant mood of the poet and how has it been brought about.

Something worships my body
I feel it, look! It pecks like a hawk
One leg swings, another burrows
Sensation and the love of life
Sensation and the trials of life
My body grapples narcotically
My supple skin cracks
Nature flourishes on another
And we feel like each other!
I slap myself, it misses my enemy
I slap myself, it kills my friend.

Note:Each question must be answered based on the effective use of poetic devices.
I really need urgent answers, it's a very important assignment and I don't understand it. Thanks

The question there is what is the dominant mood of the poet and how was it brought about. And also the effective use of poetic devices in it.

I also don't understand it, that's why I came here for help

I think the mood is that of bewilderment/shock. this is due to the question ask by the poet and the use of exclamation points almost through out the poem.

if I may ask, who's the poet?

Did I hear you say karma doesn't exist? Why then do you race into memories during some moments in the present? You see, I caught you!

Yes! This exactly - Karma, did Emmanuel portray in his new piece titled; PRODUCTS... We, you & I are products. Products of what? Who exactly are we? And what happens if we fail to plant our name on the garden of life?

Find out answers in this thrilling and mind-spearing piece. "I am Emmanuel" has spoken. Whyke has spoken.

Enjoy!���
