Scenes 1-6 & Batter My Heart
I compared the speaker in the poem to Prior. They both seem to need someone in order to help them get through something. I realized the speaker was in a desperated need for God's help in the lines that read, ""I can't do this by myself," and "I need a violent, conquering God to get me out of this." Then in Act II, Scene 5, Prior proclaims to Belize that he wants his boyfriend because he's dying and he needs him. Both characters to seem to be dependent on others and won't be able to overcome a rough time without them.
