Question

read the poem
Women
by Alice Walker

They were women then
My mama’s generation
Husky of voice—stout of
Step
With fists as well as
Hands
How they battered down
Doors
And ironed
Starched white
Shirts
How they led
Armies
Headragged generals
Across mined
Fields
Chainsawy-trapped
Ditches
To discover books
Desks
A place for us
How they knew what we
Must know
Without knowing a page
Of it
Themselves.

Which of the following gives a stumbling feeling to the poem?

the use of rhyme
the imagery
the rhythm of the line breaks
the use of alliteration
