Long Distance
The poem 'Long Distance' by Tony Harrison conveys a sense of emotional distress that his father feels after the loss of his wife. Initially, Harrison explores the effects that his mother's death has had on his father. However the final verse expresses the poet's own feelings and actions and admits that they are similar to that of his fathers.
The title of the poem 'Long Distance' could represent his parent's relationship now that she's gone. …showed first 75 words of 1573 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1573 total…to us dies, we tend to grieve at the loss of someone but get on with life as we have to. It was different for Harrison's father, as he couldn't stand the 'Long Distance' between himself and his wife, so he felt he needed to join her. I thought that the title, 'Long Distance' was appropriate as it linked well to the poem for this reason. I thoroughly enjoyed reading and writing about this poem.
