Answers
Explanation:
The Arrival of the Bee Box" begins, on a literal level, with a wooden box of live bees that the speaker has ordered. The poem opens by placing the bee box front and center. Indeed, no action really takes place in the poem—it is all about the speaker's thoughts as she contemplates the box and, in particular, her power over it.
The spare, simple language of the first line ensures that the image of the box is crystal clear:
I ordered this, clean wood box
The caesura after "this" creates a moment of pause or reflection as the speaker presents the "this" that she's ordered. It's almost as if she's talking to the box itself; note how different the line might feel were there no caesura there:
I ordered this clean wood box
Feels a bit less purposeful, doesn't it?
Moving on to the poem's second line, the clear assonance/internal rhyme of "square" and "chair" captures the imposing the sturdiness of the box, these sounds dominating the line like the box dominates the room. The box's heaviness foreshadows the way that it will provoke complicated thoughts in the speaker's mind.
