POEM FORM 2

HEIR CONDITIONING
STANZA 1
Grand dad did you breathe
Before air cons were invented
Was it hard staying
Alive without modern inventions?
Grandma weren’t you flustered
As you fluttered with paper fans?
Could you communicate before
Faxes and long distance calls
Became basic necessities?
STANZA 2
Grandchild we lived
Before your age. Because
Of our ignorance,
We did not know
Pollution, stress, traffic jams
Destruction of forests, streams and
Hills
We feared God and nature
Now nature fears you and
Money is your new God.
ANALYSIS
 In the first stanza, the poet asks his
grandparents about the life before the
technology arouse and become the important
usage in the world nowadays. He asks his
grandfather was it complicated to live in the life
without technology as he refers the technology
to the invention of the air cons. Then he asks his
grandmother regarding the condition when she
used paper fans to cool herself. He also asks his
grandmother what were the possibilities for
them to communicate without faxes and long
distance calls compared to the world nowadays.
 The second stanza shows the answers given
by the poet’s grandparents that sum up all
the questions in one simple answer. The
reason on why they did not experience all
the pollution, stress, traffic jams, and
destruction of forests, streams and hills is
because of their ignorance; they were lack of
knowledge by that time. His grandparents
add, the only thing that they fear is God and
nature but now, the nature turns to fear the
entire human race and money is the only
obsession to human.
