How might the message of the poem, ‘Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers’ be different, if the following last four lines were omitted?
When Aunt is dead, her terrified hands will lie
Still ringed with ordeals she was mastered by.
-lock-
The tigers in the panel that she made
Will go on prancing, proud and unafraid
Answer:
One possible effect of omitting the last four lines of the poem "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers" is that:
- The message of the poem would be incomplete
- The sense of hope and resilience in Aunt Jennifer's art would be lost.
- The poem would end on a more somber note , focusing only on Aunt Jennifer's fear and oppression.
