*Help Please!* How is this poem structured (divided up)?
This particular poem is structured around what one might call descriptive observations. It sets the stage with some geographical information and then describes our victims day to day routine by painting an accurate and believable picture of his attackers and leaves little doubt as to his responses or lack of responses. One gets the impression that he preys upon the cousciouness of his passersby as they prey upon him in a different way. Though this may appear to be the plight of one person, the poem itself is a metaphor for the sufferings of many and the suffers of the world.The geography changes and the people change but the situation remains the same day in and day out for many individuals.It says a lot about the suffering of souls and about the nature of poverty. All in all the poem is structured around a reality that many of us choose everyday to ignore or to acknowledge for only the time it takes to pass someone on the streets where we live.
