Song as Poetry Analysis Outline Sample    Slide #1: "Firework"   Katy Perry  Image: Fireworks  Slide #2: Theme  A. The theme of the poem is that all people have something beautiful and powerful inside them  that needs to be ignited to show it off.  B. The message is that even though we may feel insignificant at times, we can find something  about us to celebrate. Once a person recognizes their inner beauty it will start to reflect on the  outside like a firework. An ugly cardboard tube filled with powder can explode and inspire awe  to large crowds.  C. Text evidence:   "'Cause there's a spark in you  You just gotta ignite the light  and let it shine"  "Cause baby you're a firework  come on show 'em what you're worth"  "You're original, cannot be replaced."  D. Image: Spark  Slide #3: Tone  A. The tone of the poem has a celebratory and encouraging tone.  B. The speaker is celebrating an individual's beauty and power to inspire others. She is encouraging  others to recognize the power that they're hiding.  C. Text evidence:  "It's always been inside of you, you, you and now it's time to let it through."  "If you only knew what the future holds"  "Just own the night like the Fourth of July"  D. Image: Confetti  Poetic Devices  Slide #4 Simile  Lyrics: "Do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind?"   Purpose: The purpose of this lyric is to convey that sometimes people may feel that they are drifting  pointlessly through life like an ugly plastic bag. This is the exact opposite of how the speaker thinks a  person should feel about their life.  Image: Plastic bags
