The Ropewalker.

In this poem he is showing a lot of romanticism. The whole poem is based on imagery. How a worker uses his mind to imagine that he is some where rather than where he really is. He makes statements of how "two fair ladies would use the rope that he was making to swing on a swing together and laugh, how a woman could be using this rope that he is making to haul in water in from well, and how a person would also use this rope to tight rope over a large building". This is all romantic because he is doing a common job by only making rope, but he is using his imagination to think that he is doing something huge. This is another thing that romantics is all about, making it seem as if a ordinary person can achieve greatness
