This is answers for the questions after "I Love the World, As Does Any Dancer"

1)The author's unusual perspective affected the tone of the poem in the way that the author Hix used adjectives with nouns. I.E. Hix made walking barefoot in the rain sound enticing. The author wrote, "Lush grass underfoot after April rain", that is something anyone can relate too if they have had walked on wet grass before. Hix even made "sun-seared sidewalk in summer" tempting to the mind.

2)If the author Hix used sight instead of touch in his poem, I feel it would be a more colorful and beautiful poem. Also, it wouldn't wierd me out with the whole foot fetish deal. I think the adjectives Hix would use would be more powerful and descriptive.
