Jazz poem 60
Answers
Answer:
The Jazz player has an old and haggard look. He has dejected in his spirit also. His wrinkled, unshaven face is the very symbol of pain. To match this mental condition, his clothes are also old. His eyes, which are turned downwards, are indicative of his pessimism’ and hopelessness. His shoes are old and have paper in them to keep them firm. His instrument, an old alto saxophone, hangs from his neck, supported by a wire coat hanger.
He stands like a black ancient mariner as though he has a message for the people of the world. However, in the second part of the poem, there is a complete transformation and the old man gets transformed into a free bird in spirit because of the special skill that he possesses. The special skill is, playing jazz music on his saxophone.
