Essay

In the poem "Out, Out" By Robert Frost, The author tells a story of a boy who lost his life. "... to keep the life from spilling" this quote suggests a foreshadowing of the boy that eventually it will take his life. In the poem, The saw plays as the boy's last chance. the saw "as if to prove saws knew what supper meant," presents the idea that if he would have stopped earlier, This would have never happened. Frost Suggests it leaped out of his hand, But it is unlikely, Furthermore, It simply shows the lack of maturity. Frost Demonstrates how precious life is and how easy it is for it to be taken away. "Little-Less-Nothing" Exhibits the boy going from life to lifeless. "And they, Since they were not the one dead, Turned to their affairs" portrays the author's thoughts on death and life. Frost simply states that despite out hardships, We have to move on with our daily "affairs." It is impossible to control life or death, this is not in our hands or the authors, For we all out controlled by a greater being.
