Question

Describe the fustration and sorrowthe poet and poem once upon a time

Answer 1

Answer:

Once Upon A Time is a free verse poem that focuses on a father's attitude to cultural change and times past, before the incoming Western culture affected the native African way of life. In the poem the man (presumably a father) addresses the son, telling him in a rather nostalgic manner, how things used to be.

Explanation:

• In 'Coleridge Jackson' the effect is that he turns violent and lets frustration out on his family who become the victims in the so called cycle of violence.
• In 'Once Upon a Time' the man's reaction is that he regrets that he followed and copied racist and false attitudes of the western people, and in this case, the man's family is a form of hope where he turns to his son for help.
