You fit into me
like a hook into an eye
A fish hook
An open eye
This is a sharp and short love poem.
|
Indeed, Atwood's four-liner is SHARP like a fish hook.
A love poem? Definitely not, at least to me. I would say it's the hell with love, a poem to mend a broken heart. The imagery presented here is hellishly terrible.
The effectiveness of this poem is built upon the SHARP contrast between the joyful simile of the first couplet and the stunning metaphor of the second couplet.
By the way, the title of your posting should be You fit into me.

Thanks for posting this different type of "love poem," or, I should say, revenge poem.

The simile is perfect for lovemaking while the metaphor is hellish for getting revenge.
The pun -- eye/I -- is well played here.

Well said.
This poem is also associated with the colloquial expression, “being hooked.’
The last couplet -- "a fish hook/ An open eye" – sends out a big warning about a negative relationship where the partners injure one another.
