Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the approach that went through the pioneers of narrative poets, Walt Whitman and Wallace Stevens. They lived in an era of great poets who advocated for rhyme, rhythm and meter in poetry. We shall see how narrative poems, despite being described as inappropriate and absurd, still attracted their creativity and motivated them to sail against the wind. I have analyzed their poems not only on the criteria of words or the underlying emotions but also on the basis of grammar, sentence structure, syntax and punctuation. We come to realize that it's the essence and soul of the language that causes great minds like Whitman and Stevens to explore the unfathomable aspects of human existence.
