The poem I created imitates "This Is Just to Say" by Williams but is different in many ways. In Williams poem he talks about taking a plum from someone and then later rubbing it in their face. My poem is of much more serious content because instead of taking a plum he is taking someones heart and rubbing in the womens face for letting him. Here my poem shows the same idea Williams has but in a much more serious content. Because a parody is a humorous or satirical imitation of a serious piece of literature or writing but Williams poem was not serious. It was more like he was leaving a note for some roomate making fun of eating his saved plum but in my poem i take a serious situation and make fun of it so in a way it switches. I took williams non serious poem and made it serious while also making fun of it. I tried to keep everyline the same number of syllables in each line but they are off on some. The content is mostly what i tried to make parody of while still trying to maintain the same form.
