Blog #10 Medusa by Louise Bogan (reflections)

When I read the poem "Medusa" it made it more interesting to me, because the author describes that Medusa is a woman with snakes on her hair and she also turns someone to stone by looking at her or staring. Most of the readers thinks that the author created Medusa as a part of the Greek mythology. Even though, the Medusa is a dangerous creature or a monster, but I would believe that the story was great. Besides, the author provided some stanzas in order to interpret the story. However, at the end of the stanzas of the poem, that author became to stone for a long time because of Medusa's eye contact, then his eyes in on the "yellow dust" which means that dust is poison and it doesn't go away. The story was great somehow, even though the author had a great description of Medusa which was excited in the Greek mythology. I would recommend this poem to a friend of mine, because the poem is amazing to describe what is that monster looks like to anyone especially the readers.
