Substance Criticism: 

The poem was written using a contemporary style of expression with regards to the central theme as well as presentation. The content and delivery has a sheer similarity with the famous Free-style novel “The Catcher in the Rye”. With efforts on the emphasis of free expression, solitude and fantasy, the poem would be able to draw readers into a direct and plain realization about facts on daily nuisances. The poem was able to establish a common mark with its readers by the use of familiar details such as the usual activities individuals mostly perform. This sense of familiarity leads the reader to unite with the poet’s emotion of being in stagnation of the moment’s perceived reality. As the poet leads the reader to a three-stage process on the idea depicting his emotion, the readers are also led to the emotion of self-acceptance. This was caused by the unity of writer-reader formulated at the start of the poem made to have continuity by the directness and simplicity of declaration of the poet’s imagination. Thus, the reader was allowed to agree with the writer claiming the poet’s emotion to be their own. The poem was also able to deliver clearly the difficult idea behind freedom. Although representing an idea that is purely the poet’s own, a sample of such a pattern of thinking may be gained from the rest of the common population. The poem was successful into freeing the mind of the reader from all hypocrisy and deceit that occurs within oneself. The poem was able to transform itself from a composition of words and imagination to a therapeutic and deliberating declaration.
