Poetry uses forms and conventions to suggest differential interpretation to words, or to evoke emotive responses. Devices such as assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia and rhythm are sometimes used to achieve musical or incantation effects.

“Container” by Fiona Apple
I was screaming into the canyon
At the moment of my death.
The echo I created
Outlasted my last breath.
My voice it made an avalanche
And buried a man I never knew.
And when he died his widowed bride
Met your daddy and they made you.
I have only one thing to do and that's
To be the wave that I am and then
Sink back into the ocean.
Sink back into the o-
Sink back into the ocean.
Sink back
