Use Clean th Brooks’s concept of paradox to support your article.

What is the paradox in the poem you are analyzing? How does that paradox contribute to the overall meaning of the poem? Why is it important/helpful/necessary/beneficial to express this meaning through paradox? Or, to use Brooks’s language: why is the paradox in the poem you’re looking at “the only way by which the poet could say what [he/or she] says” ? Why would saying what the poet says without paradox “enfeeble and distort what is to be said” ?
Include at least one quote from the Brooks essay and at least one quote from the poem you are analyzing.
