In the poem "Poetry Should Ride the Bus" the symbol of the whole poem is that poetry is comforting and a relaxing thing that is always there.
"poetry should hopscotch in a polka dot dress
wheel cartwheels
n hold you hand
when you walk past the yellow crackhouse....
poetry should whisper electric blue magic
all the years of your life
never forgotten to look you in the soul
every once in a while
n smile"
poetry should hopscotch in a polka dot dresswheel cartwheelsn hold your handwhen you walk past the yellow crackhouse
In "Car radio" by Twenty One Pilots, they sing about how the radio was "stolen" and now they just sit in silence.
Sometimes quiet is violent
I find it hard to hide it
My pride is no longer inside
It's on my sleeve
My skin will scream reminding me of
Who I killed inside my dream
I hate this car that I'm driving
There's no hiding for me
I'm forced to deal with what I feel
There is no distraction to mask what is real
I could pull the steering wheel
Now, these aren't the exact same wrote out definitions, but they symbolize the same thing, finding comfort in the words.

Great Job! I love the way you compared the two and it's great that you've found away to make a personal connection by finding comfort in the words!
