Answered by y912f
because rosie is destroyed so now she feels better. 'i stand up through your destruction'

is this correct?

What do you think?
Answered by bobpursley
I would be happier with D if it said "thinks she will not fall away into drugs and helplessness as miss rosie did"

We don't all interpret a poem the same way. Go with your own gut feeling.
Answered by bobpursley
Amen.
Answered by y912f
still, do you have any opinions Ms.Sue?

Answered by Ms. Sue
No, I don't have an opinion. I could throw a dart at both answers, and see where the dart landed. But I don't know what the poet intended in those last three lines.

The important thing is that you've thought through this poem and tried to interpret it. Your actual answer really isn't very important.
