He tells the story of his past. He didn't have a father to teach him throughout his life, and therefore, grew up making up a better father in his head, but it still didn't complete him. Even though his father wasn't there for him, he still grew into becoming a good role model, even though he didn't have the one that he used to think he needed.

# data[].attributes.body
the poem shifted from his family home to a jail cell i assume. As well as in time. he also started speaking faster

# data[].attributes.body
One of the major shifts I found was when he changed from a loving tone almost, to a serious and almost mad tone. Where he said the knock didn't happen.

# data[].attributes.body
His tone started off very humble and sweet, and then once the poem moved on it got harsher, and sounded mad, and hurtful.

# data[].attributes.body
a shift in the poem was when his father would knock for him to him having to "knock" for himself.

# data[].attributes.body
One sound device is "Knock Knock." It is an onomatopoeia and uses repetition.

At the beginning. the tone was warm and welcoming. He talked about a fond memory with his dad. After his dad stopped knocking on his door it changed to a more powerful tone. A voice with a cause or an important reason to speak.

The purpose of "Knock, Knock" could be that even with the absence of a parental figure, we can still teach ourselves and learn how to become independent adults.

At the beginning of the story it was all happy and fun. The three-year old would play the "knock knock" game with his dad and the boy was content. Then the tone changed when the child found his father in jail, and it became more sad and despairing as the poem continued.

# data[].attributes.body
When the poem started, the speaker has a normal, warm tone. He spoke about family and his love for them, more specifically his father. As the story continued, the tone began to get darker and more filled with emotions such as anger, sadness, and a bit of desperation. When the speaker finished, he had a loud, proud, and determined tone in his voice.

# data[].attributes.body
I think a big shift in the poem is when he was talking about his happy childhood life with his father and it being wholesome, to his father not being there and the poem being more serious and depressing.

The purpose of the poem was to help people understand how unfair this world is.

I think the meaning was to show how important his father was and also to show that he could do and teach himself things without him.

# data[].attributes.body
He uses a simile when he is talking about what he wants his dad to teach him and says "how to walk like a man."

# data[].attributes.body
Some shifts I spotted was the shift in his voice in the beginning vs the end. He changes from this soft child like tone to a louder almost mad tone.

# data[].attributes.body
The poem repeats "knock knock", most likely referring to the title of the poem. I do like the repitition though, it adds more significance to the poem.

# data[].attributes.body
On the start of the poem, It was all nice and normal. Then closer to the end he started to sound hurt and filled with emotions.

# data[].attributes.body
The organization could be problem and solution because he demonstrates the problems that are created when a father figure leaves their child and restates the solution by not following the same mistakes their parents did and be present in their child's life.

# data[].attributes.body
He uses repatition to show either how he was feeling. he also uses ryhming example "never ending feld till we reach a place with high rusty gates."

There is a big shift when he changes his tone from the sweet, warm tone in the beginning to the end where he speaks with almost anger behind his voice.

The speaker uses repitition to show emphasis.

# data[].attributes.body
At the beginning of the poem the tone sounded more relaxed and towards the end it started to get more agressive and filled with more emotions

the organization of the poem is written like a essay with 5 paragraphs. it makes it seem like a child wrote it. the Knock Knock reputation of the poem makes it all the more powerful

# data[].attributes.body
The voice in this poem is saying that his father was very special to him and he had a very strong relationship with him.

# data[].attributes.body
The poem uses Knock Knock for every new stanza and this repatition helps with the point and the story he is trying to share, its orginized in such a way where it starts in his childhood to now he has a child and he has too teach that kid what his father never has.

# data[].attributes.body
When it says "And for years he never said a word." That is a hyperbole.

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose of this poem was to emphasize the hurt he felt when the poet's father left. It also tells about how we are not like our parents and that even if we grow up without one of them, we can still be a good person.

# data[].attributes.body
The big shift is his voice switching from nice and sweet to emotional and hurt.

# data[].attributes.body
I belive there were multiple tones like when he was a little kid happy loved his dad but then confusion when his dad was in pridon and the pain he felt that his dad couldnt teach him he promised not to do that to his son and he wants to stay by his side.

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose is to show the importance of those who play important roles in our life. When we are missing those people, it majorly affects our lives, causing us to wonder where it went wrong.

# data[].attributes.body
His tone in the beginning started off nice and easy, kind of like his life as a kid. Then, it started to get heavy and full with resent. It showed the change in his life from going from a kid with an easy life, to someone who has been neglected and left with pain.

# data[].attributes.body
His voice helps emphasize the anger he feels towards his father. It is like he is finally letting everything out that he has been holding in for a long time. He says his words as if he were saying it to his own father, to give people the same feeling of his own anger.

The shifts in his voice and tone help compare his life as a kid and his life now. It helps show how drastically his life has changed after missing many important things in his life.

The shift that i heard throughout the poem is that at the beginning he was describing his life with his father then a dramatic change of tone happened where his father had disappeared.

I think the meaning was that fathers are very important in teaching their children, even if all they teach is that their kids shouldn't be like them.

# data[].attributes.body
His voice was very passionate, showing his strong feelings towards his dad.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the purpose was to show that parents are very important in their children's development, but sometimes parents aren't the most reliable so the kid has to learn on their own.

# data[].attributes.body
A shift I noticed was when he went from describing his game with his dad, to the sudden change to when his dad wasn't there.
