Text transformation help! (Gatsby)

Hey all, I have to do the text transformation coursework and my chosen base text is The Great Gatsby, for my style model I have chosen Plath's Ariel but I'm really struggling to kick things off.

My current idea is to write a few poems from Daisy's point of view as she despairs in wait of Gatsby coming back for her but cant really think of anything to write about.

Any help or ideas would be grand! (style model isn't set in stone either, open to suggestions!)

But surely Daisy doesn't really love Gatsby the way he loves her. You could subtly hint at this.

Talk about exactly how Daisy sees Gatsby (an object of wealth and financial security) and also link it with Plath's The Applicant, mentioning how women are expected to be married, showing a patriarchal society. Hope this makes sense to get you started :smile:
