Implied, Lisa...or implode?
College Slice
"The Eagle" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.



It's simple and concise, but language is...I don't know the correct word. Intense, visual, visceral? Something along those lines. I much more a prose lover, but the poem has stuck with me for years.
