What is an example of a lyric poem.(you can name a song lyric that you think would fit.)

Answers

Turn my back to the door
Feel so much better now
Don't even try anymore
Nothing left to lose
There's a voice that's in the air
Saying don't look back nowhere
There's a voice that's always there

And I'll never be
Quite the same as I was before
This part of you still remains
Though it's out of focus
You're just somewhere that I've been
And I won't go back again
You're just somewhere that I've been

Which excerpt from “Marigolds” best illustrates an explicit example of setting? I remember only the dry September of the dirt roads and grassless yards of the shantytown where I lived. I feel again the chaotic emotions of adolescence, illusive as smoke. “Hey, Lizabeth,” Joey yelled. He never talked when he could yell. “Hey, Lizabeth, let’s go somewhere.” The years have taken me worlds away from that time and that place.

Answers

The sentence in the excerpt that would best describe an explicit example of setting would be the first one which is, 'I remember only the dry September of the dirt roads and grassless yards of the shantytown where I lived'. This is because it gives the picture of where the scene took place.
