The phrase “Over the moon” is so repetitive to the point it sounds a little annoying, and starting to lose meaning.

Why does the title is ‘speech balloon’ but the whole poem doesn’t mention any of these words, but only repeats the phrase ‘over the moon’?

# data[].attributes.body
Why was this phrase so commonly used?

i think this poem gives off quite a sad vibe? especially in the last five stanzas.

# data[].attributes.body
The last lines of the first five stanzas all repeat with "over the moon", to give the reader the same brainwashed feeling as the persona.

The lines are so even but the races are so diverse.

The title ‘speech balloon’ is never mentioned but the phrase ‘over the moon’ is constantly repeated. Ballon is often linked with parties, joy and fun so maybe that’s why every stanza is positive and the mood is always optimistic.

what does over the moon have to do with a speech bubble? perhaps what’s in the speech bubble is the phrase “over the moon”?

Why is the title speech balloon

What is so special about the phrase ‘over the moon’

I think this poem tells me more about imtiaz darker herself (like her background etc) instead of generally how she feels at the moment or for the period of time like the other 2 poems

# data[].attributes.body
"over the over the over the moon."

I think there’s a lot of repetition which lowkey sounds a bit boring to me? But the poem might sound happy as it keeps repeating this phrase (‘over the moon’)

# data[].attributes.body
I find it funny how the poem used over the moon a lot which makes it memorable and it just repeats in the reader’s mind like what happened with the speaker herself, so a whole bunch of the people who read this would be over the moon just like she said.

# data[].attributes.body
The speaker's tone seems annoyed and critical despite many people being "over the moon", is this poem ironic?

# data[].attributes.body
I think the poet isn't trying to convey a sense of happiness with the examples of 'happy' people but rather illustrating that they might not actually be happy.

# data[].attributes.body
theres a lot of geographical mentions/ places mentioned, e.g Malaysia, Liverpool etc. whats the significance behind this?

# data[].attributes.body
Why is there a sudden change of tone after the examples of happy people?

# data[].attributes.body
I don’t really understand the title because speech balloon isn’t the phrase we see the most its “ over the moon”, it might have a deeper meaning but since this is my first time reading it, i don’t quite understand the meaning behind it yet.

What kind of show was she watching when she encountered the phrase over the moon and why’d it get stuck in her head

# data[].attributes.body
I think the optimistic examples are sort of what could have been? Because later on it states “you won’t come across then any time soon”

# data[].attributes.body
Why does the poet mention Malaysia?

# data[].attributes.body
would the phrase no longer make sense when it is repeated for too many times so in the end no one is actually over the moon

# data[].attributes.body
Why does the supposed “ happy” poem seem a bit off at the end? Like there’s a hidden truth

# data[].attributes.body
What made the poet write about those few examples of over the moon (why malaysia and why football)

# data[].attributes.body
Does balloon in speech balloon, which is often in the air, associated with the phrase over the moon?

# data[].attributes.body
The phrase definitely stuck to my head ( why wouldn’t it) because its repeated 2887387948 billion times, it was a bit fun and lighthearted at first but now it just got a bit boring or repetitive as i read it for the first time ever
