Question

How does the poet differentiate two terms between' killing' and' cutting"? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

killing is killing a people and cutting is cutting a tree

Answer 2

Merely cutting the trunk of the tree does not kill it. When a tree is cut, the sap flows out just like a wounded man bleeds. Once the wound heals, new branches and tiny leaves grow from there which grow into trees. In order to destroy a tree, it has to be uprooted.
