QUESTION 1:
POETRY Closely read the following poem “Farewell” by E.E. Sule and answer the
question that follows. Tight jinxed professors gazing at the immensity of nothing!
Behold a multitude of books speeding away in escape Pens swagger in hollowness,
prostitute with cheap sheets Afro-haired professors walking the length of the
Atlantic in fury! Bid the sun, bid the moon, bid the stars, bid the rivers Farewell
Farewell to the flapping bravado of the flag Farewell to the querulous query of the
anthem Ask the rocks, ask the rivers ask the ghosts of the deserted shelves ask the
rocks, ask the rivers ask the emasculated walls surrounding shelves They will be
manacled by crooked questions In their intention a jeremiad shall burst They will
compose startling rhetoric Only in amputated tongues (Omoniyi. T. ed. 2014.
Poems for a Century: An Anthology on Nigeria. p. 51) Glossary: ‘jeremiad’ refers
to a long, mournful complaint or lamentation; a list of woes. ENG2602/102/0/2024
17 Write a carefully-worded essay of 1000 – 1200 words (approximately 2 to 3
typed pages) in length in which you analyse how the poet uses diction, particularly
metaphors, poetic techniques, and any other features of language to express a
mixture of frustration, outrage, disappointment, hopelessness, and sadness, at the
forced migration of educated people from their land after political independence.
As he laments the disastrous state of affairs in his country, the poet turns to
inanimate objects like rocks, rivers, shelves, even ghosts, for answers. His use of
personification suggests his loss of confidence in some of his compatriots and
expresses how his country has dashed the hopes of its people, especially
professionals like university professors.
Please note:
• You must quote from the poem to substantiate your argument.
• Explain how each quotation supports your argument.
• Do not discuss anything in your essay that you cannot relate to a sense of
disappointment and defeat caused by a country that has dashed the hopes of its
people, especially professionals like university professors.
