Read this stanza from allen ginsberg’s "a supermarket in california." we strode down the open corridors together in our solitary fancy tasting artichokes, possessing every frozen delicacy, and never passing the cashier. ginsberg most likely uses long-line free verse here to a. draw attention to the poem’s patterns of rhyme and meter. b. express his thoughts freely and without constraints. c. keep the content of the poem simple and easy to imagine. d. show his desire to return to an unassuming existence.

B. express his thoughts freely and without constraints.

Explanation:

A free verse has no meter or  rhyme and has no deeper meaning behind it. A free verse is a kind of verse that is free of the idea of patterns, meter, or rhyme and many poets prefer it since they have no restrains when it comes to writing, which might be better to express themselves.

explanation:

i decided to stay late in the laboratory to continue my experiment with the lightbulb. at midnight, thomas edison opened the door and walked in with his head held high.

1. he leaned on the wall and observed me carefully.

2. his harsh scrutiny made me self-conscious of my skills in the lab.

3. perhaps it was just me, but the air in the laboratory began to thicken as i found myself having difficulty to breathe.

4. i turned to look at him fully as i mentally prepared myself for what my very first words would be to thomas edison.

5. the next couple of seconds shocked me. it wasn't me who spoke, but rather him and with diction i could never think of using in a simple sentence.
