Q2 of 12 Page 116

Attempt a description of:

a. the place from which the call was made


b. the lady at the other end


c. the speaker in the poem.

a: The place from where the calls were made was indifferent, strange and off premises. A poem was started with a scenic view of the location. It seems like a place was unfamiliar, mediocre in preference and not that well maintained.

b: The lady at the other end of the call was landlady which means she was the landlord of that place which a poet or tenant is seeking to take on rent. She was arrogant, biased and narrow-minded lady who judged his tenant on his skin colour as he was an African.


c: The speaker the poem was both landlady and tenant. They both are talking on call in regard to build a consent between them and finalize things so that they can build a relationship of landlord and tenant, but the conversation turned into racism talks which were done by a lady when she got to know that person who was talking to her on call was an African.
