Who is the speaker in stanza 2, 4 and 6? Do you think this speaker is listening to the speaker in stanzas 1, 3, 5 and 7?

Amanda is the speaker in the stanzas 2, 4 and 6. These stanzas depict her state of mind where she is talking to her own self. However, she is not listening to the speaker in stanzas 1, 3, 5 and 7 which can be clearly understood from the line – “Will you please look at me when I’m speaking to you, Amanda!” Amanda is lost in her own thoughts in which she aspires to be free to live her life the way she wants i.e. away from the nagging of her parents.
