Analysis and comments on All All And All The Dry Worlds Lever by Dylan Thomas

Comment 3 of 3, added on December 21st, 2005 at 10:58 PM.

i've noticed dylan thomas writes about the basics--birth(s), love, sex, death--sometimes all at the same time. this particular poem... seems to describe physicality as a prison whose freedom is not only death, but also sex, or physical pleasure. don't mistake me, the most prominent symbols here are related to death, but there is always the "flower" of humanity, and the coupled buds...
