3. Please choose a piece of music you enjoy and provide a two or three paragraph analysis of it as a poetic work, paying special attention to form and to poetic language.

A piece of recent music I really enjoy is Some Nights by Fun. This song is about a young man who encounters all of life's obstacles, trying to gain on them. Whether it be from his past love, family or work issues. A special feature of this song is how he incorporates war itself throughout the entire piece, which shows the reader a very vivid relationship between war and his life. This particular piece is one of my favorites for several reasons, one being it can have many meanings by different readers, which makes a fantastic piece of work.
