The Kraken by Alfred Tennyson

1. Below the thunders of the upper deep;
2. Far, far beneath in the abysmal sea,
3. His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep
4. The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee
5. About his shadowy sides: above him swell
6. Huge sponges of millennial growth and height;
7. And far away into the sickly light,
8. From many a wondrous grot and secret cell
9. Unnumbered and enormous polypi
10. Winnow with giant arms the slumbering green.
11. There hath he lain for ages and will lie
12. Battening upon huge sea-worms in his sleep,
13. Until the latter fire shall heat the deep;
14. Then once by man and angels to be seen,
15. In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.

T: The poem may symbolise monstrous characteristics, isolation, the fear of others, etc
P: It tells us and describes the characteristics and the way the kraken lived in the deep sea, the atmosphere of the deep sea were the sun barely reaches, the kraken way of being alone, his physical characteristics, and the way he lived, how he was there for thousands of years

C:  Beyond literal we can think it may show the life of someone who is misunderstood and alone, someone wonderful but that is treated like an evil person/thing, But it seems that it really is direct and literal, is about a Kraken and his characteristics, his way to prevail in time, but also his way of being weak, when he is taken out of his comfort zone.
In literary devices we have metaphors, such as thunders of the upper sea (sunlight), personification as faintest sunlight, etc.
A: Mysterious, as it talks of an unknown creature from an isolated area.
S: It seems to be a little change in the tone when the kraken is described, as it comes to be more graphical and magnificent about describing the Kraken, instead of mysterious.
T: It seems that it`s really a direct title, it could be about the beyond literal interpretations, being alone or misunderstood, but it seems it is direct.
T: About the Kraken, it`s characteristics and his way of living.
