Answer:

The poem is set on Pearl Avenue, which "bends with the trolley tracks." The reader can imagine that Berth's Garage, where Flick Webb works, is very loud, as the trolley is constantly passing by it. The middle of the poem is about Flick's former glory as a basketball player, when "he bucketed three hundred ninety points,/A county record still." In this point of the poem, the reader can imagine the sounds of Flick's shoes on the basketball court and the sound of the ball bouncing on the floor of the court as he scores points, and the audience cheers wildly. In the last stanza of the poem, the reader sees Flick at Mae's luncheonette, where "grease-gray and kind of coiled, he plays pinball." The reader can imagine the sounds of the pinball machine and Flick's silence. He plays to "bright applauding tiers Of Necco Wafers, Nibs, and Juju Beads." Unlike the middle of the poem, in which we can imagine Flick playing to cheering crowds, the absence of noise is notable at the end of the poem....
