In Epic of Gilgamesh, at first he was fearless in the tyrant . And he met Enkidu and became an best friend. But after the fight between the Bull of Heaven, his best friend Enkidu passes away. Then, Gilgamesh, who saw his best friend’s death, feared. He was subjected to anxiety of whether he will can't leave anything after the death. I tried to focused on emotion, such as fear of sorrow and death of Gilgamesh. He turned away his eyes from reality of death and desperately looks for a way to immortality . But he accept the death as the poem progresses, and he found the true meaning of the immortal that lasting fame is immortal.
This poem was also a summary of the story. This assaignment was my first time to make English poem. This was so hard.So I need to find so many information of poetry. This poem is focused on the sadness and anguish of Gilgamesh. But the end, reader can also read the end of the story from the poem that did he come to any conclusion. I forgot try to use elements of poetry, so I'm not sure what elements I used. But I think used the metaphor and Assonance.
Metaphor part is
"A disease took over him
The death tool over him ".
Also I'm not sure, but Assonance parts are
"I'm not immortal
I'm going to die
Full of Mistakes
I'm not going to make that happen "
and
" I'm going to die
But I do not want to
I'll be immortal
I think that it is used in part of Nothing else matters ".
