  • In The Cemetery Where Al Jolson Is Buried Analysis

    2017 Words  | 9 Pages

    In reality, the narrator’s friend simply wants the narrator to stay with her overnight; however, the intimacy of her relationship with her sick friend throughout the years seems to have implanted some irrational belief that because her friend is sick, she too will inherit the disease. This further explains her decision to distance herself from her friend and avoid her fear, as well as explains her reaction to the second bed being placed in the room. The line “she wants my life” exposes the narrator’s irrational fear that her friend does not want to be alone in death; that like some mythological creature she has a blood-lust that won’t be satisfied until they are both in coffins. This concept is pushed further when a nurse gives the sick friend an injection that causes her to sleep, and the narrator, who also falls asleep, dreams of her friend decorating her house in bunting and crepe streamers (48). The narrator’s fear of death seems to have subconsciously expanded into the belief that her friend wants her to accompany her beyond the grave in some form of macabre celebration.

    The “house” in the fifth stanza symbolizes a coffin or some other form of a grave. 5. I perceive the final stanza of the poem being one of acceptance, but not so much confidence. My reasoning for this is because there is no language present that really signifies she is frightened of the end result; it instead seems to hold more of a calm, accepting tone. There is not much to signify that she is confident about the result either.
