Comparing Poems to A&P

The two poems, "Rights of Passage", and "The One Girl at the boys Party", were similiar to the story "A&P" in a few ways. Both poems were very discriptive meaning it put alot of emphasis on the main characters, describing how the looked, how they acted ect. The two poems start out with the characters entering the room just like A&P, so i would say the introduction is somewhat similar. In the story A&P Sammy and Queenie were different. According to John Updike, Sammy was poor and Queenie was rich. In Rights of Passage, the boys are different in age, and think their better than the other. In "The One Girl at the Boys Party", they were different because she was a girl and they were boys. So i would also say in both there is a Contrast in characters.
