Wowww,
Miss Atwood is a complete savage champion she does good symbolism i like the lover compared to the postcard symbolism and then i like too the other uses of the symbolic meaning of the postcard like when the lover guy dies and t hen the postcard falls like down way back in the day.

I like the comparison of her lover to a postcard, as well as the restatement of a prior section at the end of the poem.
