slam, dunk, and hook & fast break

A compare and contrast essay on Slam, Dunk, & Hook and Fast Break would be more successful using the element by element structure. Most topics are easier to write about using this structure because you are able to compare and contrast the two work throughout the essay. Moreover, this structure is easier on the reader because he does not have to try and remember the points brought up in the previous paragraphs. I would use the topics of imagery and style for my paragraphs in this essay. In Slam, Dunk, & Hook, the poet uses more metaphorical language to describe the events while the poet in Fast Break uses clearer and more descriptive language. The style in Slam, Dunk, & Hook is more choppy and the ideas are more spread apart. Fast Break flows much more than Slam, Dunk, & Hook and creates a graceful manner.
