- Mother, Any Distance
- 'Mother'
- lack of colloquial language, trying to mature and place distance between mother and him
- 'any distance greater than a single span'
- slight internal rhyme - creates an intimate , shows how close he is, shows mother as protective
- 'You come to help me'
- although physically separated in this line, shows reliance on mother
- ' acres of the walls, the prairies of the floors'
- hyperbole- afraid of future and distance from each other
- 'zero-end'
- limit of tape measure/umbilical cord
- 'recording length, reporting metres, centimetres back to base'
- emotional connection
- 'Anchor. Kite.'
- juxtaposition - kite symbolises freedom and joy can only experienced when grounded
- 'two floors below your fingertips still pinch
the last one-hundredth of an inch'
- half rhyme - neither mother nor son want to be separated, justified upset at son growing up, hard 'ch', inch = distance
- 'Mother'
