All-American Biography

In this poem, “All-American Biography”, by Paige Buffington, she describes about a life of a young boy after his mother’s death. She describes how desperate the boy was after his mother exited the world. “The things he did when she left him. He arranged blackened bones of dead horses into mother shapes long song, gallons of gasoline outside the door. Flowers pushing themselves through snow” (buffinton,2015) These were the lines which touches my heart. It shows how much isolated he was. Those were the things he did when she exited the whole world. He orchestrated darkened bones of dead stallions into mother’s shapes. The writer states how much the kid misses his mom, and the amount his mother cherishes him. He even remembers how his mother taught him to stroll in his more youthful days. The writer shows about the affection between the mother and son and how powerful it is from this poem.
