The table is symbolizing the versatilities between the authors routines on how he's able to nurish his self, to work out his poets, and also work out his arts and crafts.
"That Black Boat of our dreams." This expresses alliteration through the two words "[B]lack" and "[B]oat". This is comparing the table to the black boat boat by characterizing it by using specfic detail as black. The boat holds our dreams our dreams just as the table hold them.

The table in stanza 1 symbolizes more than just furniture, it is shown to be very versatile and can be used for many different reasons. Many different stylistic elements such as metaphor when comparing the table with the black boat because they are both black and can hold things, like food (literally) and hopes and dreams (figuratively). This deepens his praise for the table and helps show the readers that a table holds so much more than just food, it holds out thoughts and emotions.

1.Pablo was praising the table for the multiple uses it has, and how versatile it is. 2.Pablo shows that the table has multiple uses by using listing and examples, it can be used for things like for food, and also for arts and crafts, "laying before me bread wine and roast meat." "Sometimes I set out scissors, cups, and nails, hammers, and carnations." The carnations also show the beauty that the table can hold.

1.)Neruda talks about tables as providing more than just a table. He claims that tables provide support to complete tasks in everyday life, for instance he talks about how he writes poetry, eats, and does arts and crafts at the table which shows how tables provide support all the time.

2.) One example of a stylistic element is when he says, "the black boat of our dreams" which is a metaphor for the hopes and dreams we discuss at the table that never leave. He also uses a lot of imagery when he describes his table that his food sits on for him to eat and write his poetry.

gathering family and providing support.

Neurda uses "Titanitic" and "Sustain" in stanza two to show the strength of the table. The titantic is and large boat whci was able to sustain thousands of people. Sustain shows durability of an table with many different items on it.
If the stability of the table isn't secure you'll live life as an limp not knowing how to further your next steps in life.
If the table collapses so does all your dreams and hopes. If you go against your family tradition it is very common to get disowned by your own bloodline. Whic h leaves you with no hope and no where to run to in this world.

Words in stanza 2 such as trustworthy, titanic, and sustain make the table feel powerful because it represents the stability the table provides in our life. The quote "They sustain" proves this by adding to the main point of the tables deeper meaning. The table is the holder of most in our life like the food we put in our body and the creativity that we express. If the table collapses, so will our hopes and dreams. Our traditions will be shattered and our families won't have a place to gather. All together if the table is broken, so are we.

1."Titanic quadrupeds" makes the table feel like an unstoppable powerful object that is able to hold up whatever you lay upon it.

2. You can rely on the table to literally hold up what you need, the table will always be there to hold you up if you need support, it will be able to hold you and your things if you cant carry them anymore. The table is reliable.

3. If the table collapses then it is no longer trustworthy, the table cannot support you or your things anymore. In some family's there is a hierarchy were someone is the head of the family and they support the family, if they fall the family has no one to rely on for support, the money wont come in, there will be no one to protect.

1.) The quote "Titanic quadrupeds" makes this table much more powerful because the Titanic is known to be a very large and strong ship and comparing it to the table shows how powerful table can be. This also alludes back to stanza one when he mentions, "the black boat of our dreams"

2.)The table represents stability because it is a quadruped because of its four stable legs that provide support and security.

3.)If the table collapses it can impede on traditions such as eating family dinners together, losing a place of gathering, and hope along with it.
