Then someone baits a hook for you but you're much too smart for that.

 * ** This poem relates to the quote "My mother is a Fish.", which Vardaman says, because the fish is dead and so is his mother. This poem states that fish are taken home in plastic bags, which when a fish is in a plastic bag, they are kept in an enclosed area and are watched. This relates to Addie because she is dying and is watched all of the time and then is put in an enclosed area (the coffin). Also the second line states that they are poked at and Vardaman "poked" at his mother when she died to give her air holes. The poem also refers to it as a "graveyard pond" and Addie is dead, which relates to a graveyard. This poem relates to Addie in the sense that she's dying and everything that happens to the fish in this poem, happens to Addie. **



===I know that Darl knows. I don't know how he knows, but HE KNOWS. What's going to happen if he tells Pa? He'll be devistated. Pa will die if he finds out. But, it was not my fault, because I couldn't help it. I mean picking down the row and having the full sack at the end, made it so hard to turn around. I felt like I had to go there. PLEASE, PLEASE Darl, don't tell Pa! Ma would be hurt too, if she knew. But Ma is near her death and I don't want to put Pa there too. Maybe when we take her to Jefferson, to burry her with her mother, I can plead for an abortion. That might work! Oh let's hope, because I can't lose Pa, like I'm about to lose Ma. ===

===<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">There is something wrong with my family. I don't know what to do about it, but make things worse. I know about Dewey Dell's pregnancy. I also know about her encounter with Lafe and her selfish reasons for wanting to go to town once Ma dies. She won't admit it, but we both know the truth. So I taunt her about this, any chance I get. But, she always asks me if I'm going to tell Pa and "kill" him. I don't know what to do yet. Also, I taunt Jewel about Ma's death coming. I just keep saying to him, "Do you know she is going to die?". He never says anything back. Sometimes I feel like the bad guy in this family. ===

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Dear Diary,
===<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">So, today the bridge was out and we had to go find another way into Jefferson. We turned around and headed back past Tull's house. Tull followed our wagon to another bridge, on his mule. I did not want Tull there. I knew he knew I didn't want him there. The entire family looked at him in different ways. I was so angry. Why did he follow us there? We were doing perfectly fine until he showed up. I glared at him until he got the message, even though that didn't really work. I yelled at him for following us, but was stopped by Cash. Somehow we had to get across the river, but Tull wouldn't let us borrow that stupid mule!!!!! I was so angry! ===

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Journal Entry #8 : Addie's <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Reactio n (DEWEY DELL, Section 14)
===<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Oh Dewey Dell, Dewey Dell. Why would you have done this? My little girl, having her own child. How could you have been so stupid? You are so selfish for using my burrial as an excuse for an abortion. I cannot believe my family. An abortion and false teeth? Wow! What a selfish bunch of people you are. I cannot believe this. No wonder I had an affair. But my poor Cash, he has been working hard to make the perfect coffin for me. I love him for that. Oh, and when Dewey Dell found Vardaman "spying". Well Dewey Dell, shouldn't be speaking to herself. Vardaman is just coping with my death and should not be yelled at. Dewey Dell, don't you shake Vardaman. He is my son. I know you have a lot on your mind, but hurting your siblings is no way to handle it. Even though you do not want to have a baby, PLEASE don't go with an abortion. That would be a huge mistake. Yes, your father will not be happy, but even though I am dead, I will help get him through it. Please Dewey Dell, don't use the trip into Jefferson for your own benefits. Once I am burried, go ahead do whatever you want, but just please think about your actions. I am your mother and I'm trying to help. ===

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Journal Entry #9 : Extended Entry (WHITFIELD, Section 41)
===<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">I found out my beloved Addie is dying, today. What terrible news to hear. I felt that I must go and admit the affair to Addie's husband. I feared that she might never forgive me, but I had to before she told him, and he came and found me. I was on my way to her house, when a neighbor stopped me and told me she had already died. Why has God done this to me and her poor family? Unless it was a sign, never to see her again. Either way, I will never know, because she is gone. I loved Addie Bundren and she will always be in my heart. I just hope that God is with that family and that he is with me in my time of mourning. ===
