Modelled Paragraph:Duffy uses a listing structure in the poem ‘The Virgin’s Memo’ to convey a woman’s representation of creation and their value in society. “Maybe not rats son” The uncertainty in the language shows a hesitancy suggesting the lack of power held by women, not only in potentially the modern day, but throughout history. It also presents a stereotype as the Virgin Mary’s requests items such as rats, snakes and spiders to be eliminated from the world and creatures such as the unicorn to remain. The fact that this isn’t the case portrays the idea that woman are not valued or listened to. The long list and use of the phrase “son” gives the impression that the list is continuous and boring and seems like a list of chores set by a mother. The reader is overwhelmed by the negativity and ugly nature of the language and ideas used and leads them to link this to society itself in the way that women are treated.
