Poetry - Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night.

1. "Rage, rage against the dying of the light". Because the speaker may be upset that his fater is dying, and is unable yo fight it. Also, because the line repeats its self, it shows much more emotion.

2. The line does shift meaning with each time it repeats. As the poem progresses, the speaker  becomes more desperate for his father to live.

3. The speaker wishes his father to 'curse' or 'bless' him. Anything so long as he does something, and acknowledges him there with him.

4. The speaker wants his father to die peacefully, but he still wants him to fight, because of course, he does not want him to die.

5. The contradiction of this form is it does use repetition, but because there is so much emotion in the poem, it does not stick exactly to the proper form.
