In the poem "Perfectly Imperfect" by Donna Bozzone, the author uses a narrative text structure. The text follows a chronological order, beginning with the speaker's childhood memories and progressing to present moments. This structure is identifiable through the use of time markers such as "Once upon a time" and the way the speaker recounts various events and experiences in a storytelling manner. The author's choice of this structure helps the reader engage with the poem more easily by providing a clear sense of progression and allowing the reader to follow the speaker's journey. It also creates a sense of familiarity and relatability, as the narrative structure is a common way of understanding and sharing experiences.
