"My Papa's Waltz" by Theodore Roethke depicts a complex relationship between a father and son, with themes of love, fear, and violence intertwined. The poem's understated tension and ambiguity leave room for interpretation regarding the nature of the father-son dynamic and the impact of the waltz on the speaker.
