What idea does the extended metaphor in "I dwell in Possibility" communicate to readers? A. Poems are built with walls and floors, just as houses are. B.Poetry is a superior form of writing to prose because the writer can express more. C.Poetry and prose both offer writers many possibilities for exploring ideas. D.The rules of poetry limit what poets can write. "I dwell in possibility - A fairer House than Prose- More numerous of Windows- Superior-for Doors- Of chambers as the Cedar- Impregnable of eye- And for an Everlasting Roof The Gambrels of the sky-"

I think it's B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Either B or C due to the fact Prose means ordinary speech or writing, as oppose to poetry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, I just thought it was B because he says "A fairer house than Prose", and then goes on to describe it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It was B Thank you.
