Compose a 500-word comparison or contrast essay. Do not show similarities and differences; rather, show how two characters, settings, or situations are either alike or different. If you write about how two poems (characters, settings, or situations) are alike, then your thesis will state three similarities. If you write about how two poems (characters, settings, or situations) are different, then your thesis will state three differences.
