Anyone doing the character and voice cluster?? What do you think will come up?

Can the poems that were previously for foundation tier only come up?

I have a theory they want to use up all the poems on that anthology as this is the second last year of the current specification.

A Vision, Price We Pay and Spellbound are all Foundation tier poems. They will NEVER be mentioned in the higher paper. Of course, you can use them for comparisons and you won't lose any marks, but they won't ever be the mentioned poems on the Higher tier paper.

For the foundation, longer poems like The Prelude and 2 other which I don't know won't be mentioned because they're Higher tier.

I've heard some people say that some poems are for foundation and some are for higher, however i didn't know about place, since my teacher never mentioned it, what poems do you think will come up tmrw since all the other ones are done.

Sorry for the mis-understanding I was talking about higher. If You are doing higher then it didnt come up. But if you are doing foundation I am sorry i dont actaully know about foundation tier.

Can someone please help me make some solid points about the poems:

To his coy mistress and Ghazal - I think they're best to compare but I'd really like a second opinion/some suggestions!

(please!)

Hour is probably the best as they both deal with love in relation to time, but also In Paris With You as they are both used to persuade

I didn't study Flag and The Falling Leaves properly, anyone know any good points to mention about them if they come up? I know it won't because it came up last year but I wish Out of the Blue would come up
