Pulse Of Morning Maya Angelou
1,218 words... hotel lines are slower; they don't feel choppy or silted (Shiflet 19 - 20). The word "stanza" directly translated from Italian, means "room, " so it's useful to think of each stanza as a place the poet collects her thoughts, a place to explore and move through (Neubauer 24).
