English 101: Post for Jan 31

English 101: Post for Jan 31: "Hello All, For this post, choose a song whose lyrics you would classify as poetry, and describe/list the literary devices the songs uses. ..."

I picked Carrie Underwood's " Jesus take the wheel" this song stands out to me. It uses Imagery with the lyrics we get a visual of the struggles that we as people face. Metonymy were the steering wheel representing life. This song is very symbolic lots of emotions throughout. Some of the lines are...

Jesus, take the wheel
take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own

I'm leting go
so give me one more chance
to save me from this road I'm on
Jesus, take the wheel
