An Analysis of "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers" It is difficult to depict a primary poetic technique within this poem. The reason being that, many devices are used to bring forth the message that Rich has embedded within it. However, symbolism is the most prominent. The poem is set in a traditional format, using simple rhyme and meter to give the reader a sense of formality. Adrienne Rich's "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers", depicts an audacious woman trapped within a timid and suppressed life. Marriage and the culture that supports it have effected the character in this poem greatly. Reality seems inescapable because of the ring that "sits heavily upon Aunt Jennifer's hand". The tapestry that Aunt Jennifer is creating in the poem, is very symbolic of her potential. When you picture a tiger, the words power, fluidity, nobility, and strength may accompany that image. Those same words accompany the hidden life of Aunt Jennifer. The first stanza opens the poem with a truly bold image of tigers as "They pace in sleek chivalric certainty". The tigers obviously have a very significant symbolic purpose in this poem. They portray the fearlessness, assertion and power, that Aunt Jennifer displaces in order to lead her conventional life
The conflict is that the woman had fairytale expectations of what married life would be--but finds herself in a loveless marriage, unable to achieve self-actualization like her artistic, carefree (and lazy) husband, and finds herself in an never-ending rut of cleaning dishes and dusting furniture as society expected a woman (Rich wrote this in 1951) to do.

"For the Record" by Adrienne Rich is a poem that reflects on the limitations of language in conveying complex feelings and experiences. Rich uses the metaphor of a record player to explore the ways in which language can both communicate and obscure the truth of one's inner self. The poem ultimately suggests that true understanding and connection can only be achieved by going beyond words and engaging with one's innermost emotions and experiences.
