War photographer
  1. Form and structure
    1. regular rhyme scheme
      1. I think Duffy writes the poem like this to show her respect and that she does care and she does this by taking the time to get things right.
        1. Also it is a bit of a contrast because it is a poem about the destruction of war and the photos he takes but she wrights the poem neat and with no errors even though war is messy and unpredictable.
      2. stanzas are equal lengths
        1. Its "in ordered rows" like the war photographers work
        2. The first line of stanza 3 it says "something is happening." This is a turning point in the poem (volta)
          1. The focus changes to the personal cost of war (specific deaths)
        3. Contrasts
          1. "his hands, which did not tremble then"
            1. Irony - He is calm when it comes to war and horrors of war but is frightened when he comes home.
            2. Emotive language
              1. Duffy tries to represent the true horror of conflict to make the reader think about the subject.
                1. "A hundred agonies in black and white"
                  1. Emotive metaphor to describe the photos. Having the pictures printed seems to confirm the the suffering
                2. Religious Imagery
                  1. The reference to religion almost makes it seem like the photographer is the priest and he is conducting a funeral when he develops the photos.
                    1. "as though this were a church, and he a priest preparing ... mass"
                    2. Anger
                      1. The poem ends with a sens of anger at the people who "do not care" about the suffering of others.
