Analysis of Elma Mitchell by fazid mohammed is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The poem depicts a mob that has captured a woman they perceive as immoral. The persona boasts about roughing up the woman and objectifies her. As the mob prepares to stone the woman to death, a preacher intervenes by speaking to her with compassion. This gives the woman and mob pause, as the preacher sees her humanity in a way they do not. The mob leaves uneasy, holding onto their stones and judgments of her.
