Imagery

Imagery depends on what you can see in your imagination.

“All flesh is grass”

This is a powerful image in how it suggests the “flesh”, meaning bodies of humans, is now one with the grass. This shows how men and women are gunned down and left to rot with no remorse or guilt.

“A half-formed ghost”

This image suggests a person is dying and is becoming a “Ghost”. The words “half-formed” gives me an image of the man lying there, desperately needing medical attention, but not getting it.
