In your blog post, you skillfully analyze the poet's use of repetition to convey the emotional impact of a horrific crime and the subsequent dismissive sentencing by the court. By connecting this repetition to Freud's concept of the "death drive" and Derrida's discussion of "archive fever," you highlight the complex interplay between the destructive nature of repetition and the impulse to document and preserve. Your interpretation of the physical space on the page as a representation of the emotional void left by the victim's death and the court's attitude is particularly insightful. I think your post captures well the emotional reality of the situation by creating a conflict between the desire to document and the compulsion to repeat traumatic events.
