Throughout ?The Emperor of Ice Cream?, Wallace Stevens makes use of numerous figurative language devices to symbolically convey his message that everything in society is mainly based on appearance, and that people should start living their lives based on simple and unadulterated truths. In this simple, two stanza, yet deeply symbolic poem, the reader is first met with the command by the speaker to- Call the roller of big cigars (line 1). Cigars typically are smoked for celebratory reasons, so the reader is able to sense that a special occasion is about to take place. The speaker?s peculiar choice of words to describe ice cream (-concupiscent curds [line 3]) leaves the reader wondering what carnal lumps of milk have anything to do with a celebration.

Bert

you are an ugly duckling, consider yourself in good company. You are not the first, and almost certainly not the last. Many famous ugly ducklings have preceded you. I will supply a list of some of the more significant ugly ducklings of the last century: 1.) Bert, from Sesame Street. Bert was not as cute as many of the other muppets, and never got as much attention as Ernie. He was a rather misanthropic puppet, probably for this reason. However, if he had been born with better looks, he probably would have been more friendly and likeable.
