The Poet's Frustration with Urban Life
The poet expresses his frustration with urban life in the following way: "like to which this road is going so immediately their hopes are shattered and they begin to feel dejected right so same the poi talks here that the cars only stop there either to take a round turn or they stop there to ask the way." The poet highlights the disappointment and disillusionment that people experience when their expectations are not met. They find that even simple tasks, such as stopping at a traffic light, can be frustrating due to the inability to move forward.
The poet's frustration with urban life is further exacerbated by the constant stream of inquirers who stop at these locations. "he expresses a lot of anger you know what he says he says that sometimes some people stop there to inquire if they can get a gallon of gas." The poet is fed up with people constantly asking for basic necessities, which he believes are not readily available. He feels that these individuals cannot even be bothered to check if the required fuel is available before stopping.
The poet's anger is palpable as he describes the situation: "they couldn't this crossly means in such a you know of cross manner in such an angry manner he says they couldn't they had none didn't it see didn't it see means like he is very much infuriated at the city Fox ignorant because the poet feels that why they couldn't see that these people cannot sell fuel these people don't have the capacity to save fuel and sell it right so the people at the stand get annoyed especially whenever they are asked for like do you sell fuel or can you fill this gallon of gas so the people feel angry at such questions because they feel that Conda city people see that we are here for selling our vegetables we are here for selling you know a few a few fruits so how can we sell a gallon of gas or how can we save fuel to them."
The poet's anger is not limited to the urban dwellers, but also extends to the overall state of poverty and backwardness in rural areas. "reading the last stanza that is the concluding one and see what the ultimate stroke the poet makes knowing one can know in country money the country scale of gain the requisite lift of spirit has never been found." The poet laments the fact that despite having access to large sums of money, there is no corresponding improvement in the quality of life for rural folk. He highlights the lack of "spirit" and "relief" in these areas, where people are struggling to make ends meet.
The poet suggests a solution to this problem: "it would be a great relief work to kill all these people in one stroke you know for him mass killing is the easiest and the quickest remedy to put put an end to all their pains and sufferings." However, upon regaining his wisdom, the poet realizes that this approach is inhuman and morally wrong. He acknowledges that killing innocent people would be a terrible solution to the problem of poverty and backwardness.
In a surprising twist, the poet suggests that he himself should be killed if there is no other way to alleviate the suffering of rural folk. "he further thinks that you know he should be killed so that he won't see the miserable plight of the poor people." The poet feels that if he cannot do anything to help these people, then perhaps he should not have to bear witness to their suffering. This poignant conclusion highlights the poet's commitment to social justice and his desire to make a positive impact on society.
In conclusion, the poem provides a powerful commentary on urban life, poverty, and the struggles of rural folk. The poet's frustration with the system is palpable, but his ultimate solution – killing innocent people – is morally reprehensible. Nevertheless, the poem remains a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition and our collective responsibility to address social injustices.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: engood morning dear students I hope you all are good at all sir children today we will do our fifth poem of our English reader book flamingo so the title of the poem is a roadside stand a roadside stand as one of the finest creations of one of the finest poets of America that is Robert Frost right so you know as it is also written by the editor here in the praise of the point that Robert Frost is a highly acclaimed American poet of the 20th century right he is a modern point so Robert Frost wrote about characters people and landscapes mean sceneries right his points are concerned with human tragedies and fears his reaction to the complexities of life and his ultimate acceptance of his burdens you know you all must have heard the names of his most famous poems one of them is stopping by woods on a snowy evening that is extremely extremely famous and that is prescribed there and the syllabus of class 12 as well Punjab the school Education Board next is birches mending walls like these are a few very well-known pieces of Robert Frost right so today we are going to read has I would say one of the masterpieces that is a roadside stand you know Robert Frost presents the life lives of poor deprived people like with pitiless clarity and deepest sympathy and humanity right so in this point Frost has brought out the apathy of the rich city dwellers towards the poor roadside sellers right so the honors you may say the small honors of these roots side shops they have made a new shed with the hope of selling their vegetables and fruits to the city people who often pass by that road in their cars right but unfortunately the rich and sophisticated people of the city are insensitive to the needs of these shared owners right the poet is deeply agonized to see the miseries of these shared owners a roadside stand the title clearly means that something that stands on the side of the road right so her children listen carefully what is the meaning of this phrase in the poem in the point roadside stand means that those shorts those hurts like shops right those are hot light hot like shops which are opened by the poor helpless village people right the shops the small shops I repeat that are established by the poor and helpless Village People in order to yet right in order to obtain their livelihood right so in this point Robert Frost has beautifully presented how these people are ignored by the rich folk of the towns entities right how they are treated by them but actually they need what actually they want and see is that fulfilled or not right so let's start reading the text of the Boyne the little old house was out with a little new shaped the little old house was out with a little new in front at the edge of the road where the traffic sped sped means where the traffic moves with speed a roadside stand that too pathetically bled bled means to request right it would not be fair to say for a dole of bread right dole of bread means you can compare it to a small gift but for some of the money the - whose flow supports the flower of cities from sinking and withering faint right so see a children the writer tries to say here that he has observed a little shed in front of a little house that means some farmer with small land holding or you know little land holding would be there and that farmer has probably established a small shop in front office who right in front of his home like probably he has a provide some of the space of his house and some of the space of the road on which his house is situated right so he has set up a new little shop of himself himself right so he ever there says that in front at the edge of the road where the traffic spell it means so the shed is there at the edge of the road at the corner of the road that where the traffic moves with speed where the cars and you know other vehicles of the people with speed they take turns with speed right a roadside stand that too pathetically played so what he means to say here the point makes it clear that you know the honor of the house has built a temporary shed at the edge of the road so what he says that too pathetically bled it means he is probably pleading the rich people pleading mini Tigana right he is probably requesting the rich people it would not be fair to say for a duel of bread right so he makes it very clear that the purpose was not to get free money like arms and baking the boy it makes it very clear that the stall owner expects the people to stop there and buy something from him so that he can also earn some cash money it is this cash money which flows in our cities and people lead luxurious life there right so the poet here wants to say that the shed owners have established small sheds in order to sell their vegetables and fruits which they grow in their limited area of land and you know they cannot afford to buy a separate land in order to set up a shop or a shed there that's why they have you know taken some of the space from their house and some of the space from the road in order to no sell their vegetables and fruits that are grown by them on their land right so why they have set up so not because they want to begged from the rich people it is because they expect that the people who pass by their truth made by some vegetable or fruit from them they may buy something from them and the Village People - can feel some money in their hand they too want to hold that cash money with which the people of cities are living a luxurious life right so I hope that's very much clear next he talks off the Polish traffic past with the mind ahead the Polish traffic here means the sophisticated and you know the you may see rich people well-off people sophisticated city people they pass in their lavish vehicles right or if ever aside a movement then out of sorts at having the landscape melt landscape means scenery right the view mayor means to spoil mayor spoiled right mad with the Heartless paint of science that with n turned wrong and s turned wrong offered for sale wild berries in wooden quartz a very deep meaning line a beautiful line so see children I would like to quote an example in order to make you understand this line in a proper manner so children you must have seen people who have opened a small business of their own suppose a girl a young girl has opened her own beauty parlor right so she may not have that much money in order to buy a stand by a proper stand and she may not have that much money to give to a painter in order to write her name and occupation properly on that stand and she may have requested some of her acquaintances or one of her friends to do the task for her and they too are ignorant like the girl and the often right wrong spellings you would often see that the poor people who have prepared their own stands in order to advertise their products they often mistake certain things they often you know right wrong spellings so that thing is written here of science that with n turned wrong and has turned wrong right so in the third line which I have read the poet says that at having the landscape made it means rich people's view is that when they look out of their vehicles they say that these villagers have totally spoiled the view of the nature means in villages one can see beautiful sceneries so the rich people often say that these people buy establish their sheds outside their houses they have occupied half of the road it is obviously inconvenient for the vehicles to pass by that road and you know he say further says that they have spoiled the road with the Heartless paint at less you know at lesser means poor which is not proper right which is not done by a perfect person which is not done by an artist right so I would explain this paragraph again in a while you know the poet says that the well-off sophisticated and rich city people they pass in their lavish vehicles from these roads right so you know the mind of these rich people is focused on their destination means the place where they want to reach ultimately their mind is focused on their destiny and you know they are oblivious of the roadside stand they are totally oblivious of this they do not generally stop or show concern for these poor villagers right even you know if they pause there for a moment right even if the park was there for a minute to have a look at these people they are always critical of the village people they are always critical of them why what I just told you they feel that these village people have spoiled the beauty of the nature with their indecent wind Atlas filled with that wind that is not beautiful that is not attractive as I told you if they have if they don't have the money obviously they would ask someone some friend or some acquaintance to do the tasks for them and that is not done in the perfect manner suppose a person has to open a fruit shop they may not have that much money in order to pay the painter for the preparation of the board they just write it on the walls that this is a fruit shop right and if they write themselves obviously they are illiterate or they are less educated they often write incorrect Spelling's right they often write in an unattractive manner so that's why that's what the city people feel the city people feel that these rustics have spoiled the beauty of the landscape beauty of the scenery with their indecent paintings right so they show annoyance they show anger as the direction signs are you know also turned wrong they do not know any interest they do not show an interest in the things being sold there right you know such as blackberries as it is mentioned back bear are you not kept in wooden crates there they do not show any interest in buying those fruits and vegetables in fact they are critical of the illiteracy and you know attitude of these village people who have established small sheds in order to run their livelihood right so I hope that's also clear next line or group necked golden squash with silver verts group net golden squash I hope you have heard of this or beauty rest in a beautiful mountain scene you have the money but if you want to be mean why keep your money this crossly and go along right so what the right what the poet wants to say here he says that or group necked golden squash with silver watch group neck means obviously some of them are not perfect in growing vegetables and fruits right so what they often do you know they often plant some of the vegetables that crookneck means those vegetables grow while their necks are bent some of their necks are bent right so some of their neck servant it means some of those vegetables are not in proper shape right squash you know squash means a kind of God right so these veggies and fruits the people sail with silver quoi silver words means walks right or beauty rest in a beautiful mounting scene you know this roadside stand honors they sell vile berries in wooden carts wooden containers and they also sell twisted neck golden squash twisted net means the the vegetables or the fruits the neck of which is bent twisted not straight right so squash fruit with silver lump on it right as we have seen in that so those silver thread like lumps are there spread there on those fruits right for decoration you know the point further says that the city people disapprove of this right so you know a moment of respite is felt in beautiful surroundings of that village city me will feel that the roadside stand spoils the beauty of the mountain scenery which can be seen very easily from that view so these rich people are so selfish right they are so selfish that they do not want to share their money with the poor people but you know why they get angry with the rustics is not understood by the point the poet is angry over the attitude of these rich people who actually do not cooperate who actually do not appreciate the practices the little practices of these small farmers right so I hope that's also clear up to now next he says that the herd to the scenery wouldn't be my complaint the herd to the scenery wouldn't be my complaint so much as the trusted soro of what is unsaid but as unsaid means what is not expressed in words right that is visible but not expressed in words I would explain it let me complete this Tanger so much as the trusting sort of what is unsaid how far from the city we make a roadside stand and ask for some City money to feel in hand so try if it will not make our being expand and give us the rest of the moving pictures promise that the party in power is said to be keeping from us you know now he is talking of politics the poet talks of the politics the as you know conveyed in such a roundabout manner that the people of villages are often be fooled by the politicians right so the point doesn't want to you know complain about the harm that these people call cause to the natural scenery you know in fact he is more concerned with the pain and sorrow of the unsaid words right unsaid words means the farmers they keep on looking at the faces of the people who come in big vehicles who pass from those roads and big vehicles they do not complain of anything in fact they keep their complaints with them they too are angry with these city people because you know the city people have to buy certain things these veggies and fruits so it would of it would obviously you know cause them a bit less if they buy it from here if they buy it from these village folks in fact the village people are annoyed with these city people why because they feel that they can buy something from us right the village people feel that the rich City people should buy these veggies and fruits from them but they do not say anything they are annoyed they are angry but they do not express their anger they never express their anger right so what the poet says here he says that he doesn't want to complain about the harm that these people are causing to the natural scenery by hiding it right he is actually concerned with them pain and sorrow of the unsaid words unsaid word means that the problem is there right problem is already there but that is not complained by the concern that not complaint by the farmers right so he is concerned about that pain and sorrow right of the unsaid words and he is actually having a you missing empathy with these people he can feel their pain right he further says that the poet further says that the country people country we will means the people of rural areas people of villages so these village people trust their rich brothers in City so they think that they would come to their help but feel extremely sad extremely disappointed when their trust is broken by these city people through their indifference like this is nothing at that time but you know they're bad you may say ugly facial expressions and even their silence speak about they're cold and indifferent attitude towards poor people right so they don't say anything but their facial expressions say everything so that is what the poet has called unsaid right so they don't say anything but they express everything with their facial expressions right the first that the point say is that these villagers establish roadside stand far away from the city and they really hope as it's a repetition so the explanation would be same he says that they really hope that some money from city dwellers should pass into their hands and they must be able to sustain their livelihood and could live a better life right you know by letting some money pass into the hands of rustic people by the city dwellers so it will keep the promise of providing comfortable life which ruling parties have actually failed to do so the farmers are not even complaining that this that promise was done to us right and that is not fulfilled actually politicians you know the ones who only make false promises to provide better living conditions are never fulfilled by them in fact the village people are expecting that instead of begging anything from the government so they should they are expecting her that these things their commodities their grown-up vegetables and fruits should be purchased by the city people so that they can feel some cash in hand right so I hope that's also clear next s next paragraph it is in the news that all these pitiful kin are to be brought out and mercifully gathered in to live in villages next to the theater and store where they won't have to think for themselves anymore right where they would have to think of for themselves any more you know King hair means relatives kin hair means brothers and sisters you may say so what the court is saying here that he has heard it it is in the news that he has heard it that all the poor people whom the poet considers as his brothers or relatives they would be taken out they would be drawn out of their land properties right he must have the poet must have heard it in in the news right what he heard that the land properties of these people will be taken and they will be drawn out of their properties their lands would be brought or acquired for the commercial development commercial development business purpose right they weren't the stand honors those shared owners right to vacate and you know shift to the rural areas they promised the villagers that they would get a spectable life and a good space in the village in the village then they need not to be concerned about their livelihood they would not be any need to feel concerned about their sustenance right however like they will turn these people into you know free Wanderers aimless Wanderers who only eat and watch movies all the time like all their creative pursuits would be stopped the whatever talent they have in themselves would be crushed right so I hope that's also clear next line while greedy good-doers beneficent beasts of prey greedy good tors beneficial beads of prey swarm over their lives and forcing benefits so what the writer is referring to her he is referring to the beneficent ones you know the generous ones beasts means animals right and to enforce means to compel someone to do something and force to compel the force someone simply to force someone to do something so the coiler continues that are calculated to soothe them out of their wit's and by teaching them how to sleep this sleep always destroy their sleeping at night the ancient way you know what they actually do the people you know they will be settled in villages and given jobs he has heard it that they will be settled in the villages and they will be given jobs this is what the developers have told him developers have told means with the people who are there in the development tasks right but in fact you know children these businessmen are serving their own interests these commercial people are just fulfilling this fish motives right so they will turn these people into mere wage earners and you know working in night shifts and during throughout the day you know they will make or they will be made false promises right they teach innocent people to sleep over or you know ignore their sufferings they will motivate them not to pay any attention towards their problems in sufferings but in reality you know they snatch their peace they snatch their peaceful movements and sleep through exploitation right so they will snatch their peace and sleep right through exploitation so you know greedy good doers have been compared to beasts of prey the one who preys Shekar banana so what to do the greater you know what these greedy doers do actually these greedy doers you know they swarm over you they they want over the poor peasants in order to exploit them in every possible manner right so they take their sleep otherwise they take their sleep indirectly so I hope that is also clear to you next paragraph sometimes I feel myself I can hardly be heard the thought of so much childish launching in vain you know sometimes the poet feels that he it is unbearable for him to see the childish launching of the people you know childish means in negative sense childlike desire childish launching means childlike desire of these people who wait for their customers like they are so hopeful that they keep on waiting for the city people to stop there and buy something from them right so what do you see he says this sometimes I feel myself I can hardly bear the thought of so much childish launching in vain you know that childlike behavior child like launching means their desires a child often expresses some of the things are impossible some of the things children ask are actually impossible in reality so the same the poet has compared here he says that the sadness that looks right loves means hands that loves near the open window there that waits all day in almost open prayer you know they pray to God for the customers we have seen children we have seen people that they pray for lot of money that they pray for a lot of comforts and luxuries in their life right we have seen such kind of people but have you seen the people who pray for their customers who pray that they should get somebody to whom they can sell whatever they have produced by doing hard labor right so he says that for the sequel of breaks sorry for the squeal of brakes the sound of a stopping car of all the thousand selfish cars that pass just one to inquire what the farmers prices are right so he expresses a very different idea the point C says that it is really unbearable it is really painful to see the childlike desires of the people who pulley wait for their customers to stop who hopefully wait for the city people to stop there and buy something so there is a great deal of sadness right a great deal of sadness as you know The Stand honors wait near the open window like they are praying for the people to stop they don't force them to stop but they pray to God that these people should stop right so they wait for the loud shrieks of brakes you know children it's written for the squeal of brakes means the voice that is produced by the brakes of vehicles you know that squeal of brakes means that voice of brakes that sound off brakes when those are applied we often heard a loud squeal right and they also wait for the sound of stopping cars right so you know it raises their walk for some city money that could flow in the hands they go wheelie you know they're both is waste because you know that one car out of thousands would stop there one car out of thousands means a thousand cars passed from that road only one who'd stop there and that would also stop to enquire about the prices of the farmers crops right you know the to stop there so that they can make they can know the difference between they're priced farmers price and the price at which they are sold the vegetables and fruits and the cities right so I hope that's also clear to all of you so the voice says that these people vainly hope that any one car would stop there but whosoever stops they stop for inquiring the prices of the products sold by farmers right so they only stop to inquire the farmers prices of the crops or the commodities they see right so reading the next danger just one to inquire what farmers prices are and one did stop but only to blow up grass in using the yard to back and turn around and another to ask the way to where it was bound and another to ask could this elite a gallon of gas they couldn't this crossly they had none didn't it see such a low all these are the expressions of anger so what the poet wants to say in this danger like when any of the car stops there there hope shares hopes are shattered for it right vie shattered because the only stop there to dig up the grass right pick up the grass why so that they can use the yard to back and turn their car or their vehicle right if other people stop there why they stop they stop because they want to ask the direction you know we also have traveled to many of the places say if we feel that the road is a new one for us and that we don't know exactly the way where we want to reach so we often stop our car on some of the highways or by the side of roads of some of the villages and we often asked the local people there where this load road leads to right so we ask directions so same is the case the poet is describing he actually you know whenever we stop our vehicle right in front of some people selling their wages or their commodities by establishing a small shed whenever we stop our vehicles right in front of them they - first of all you know generate a ray of hope that we would buy something from them but the moment we ask them the way like to which this road is going so immediately their hopes are shattered and they begin to feel dejected right so same the poi talks here that the cars only stop there either to take a round turn or they stop there to ask the way right so next line in the next two lines he expresses a lot of anger you know what he says he says that sometimes some people stop there to inquire if they can get a gallon of gas if that means that they want to inquire if the required fuel is available there so the point becomes very angry here see he describes that they couldn't this crossly means in such a you know of cross manner in such an angry manner he says they couldn't they had none didn't it see didn't it see means like he is very much infuriated at the city Fox ignorant because the poet feels that why they couldn't see that these people cannot sell fuel these people don't have the capacity to save fuel and sell it right so the people at the stand get annoyed especially whenever they are asked for like do you sell fuel or can you fill this gallon of gas so the people feel angry at such questions because they feel that Conda city people see that we are here for selling our vegetables we are here for selling you know a few a few fruits so how can we sell a gallon of gas or how can we save fuel to them so in this manner the poet expresses his anger right so reading the last stanza that is the concluding one and see what the ultimate stroke the poet makes knowing one can know in country money the country scale of gain the requisite lift of spirit has never been found that a quiz it lifts of spirit has never been found also the voice of the country seems to complain I can't help owning the great relief it would be read it again I can't help owning the great relief it would be to put these people at one stroke out of their pain it means as the boy it would suggest some solution right when he says he the require the requisite lift spirit requisite means the required desires right so he says that he really wants to relieve these people and he wants to relieve these people of their pain in one stroke it means in one action only and the name and then next day as I come back to the scene saying you know as he become sane he comes back to sanity I wonder how I should like you to come to me and offered to put me gently out of my pain you know he describes the miserable condition of people living from hand to mouth he suggests a solution and see what he says he sadly states that the prosperity in the city is you know not trickling down in the villages at all the money is not passing from the rich people to the poor ones right so no amount of material gains in the country is uplifting the villages and hence you know the spirit of these poor people remains dejected remains depressed because of extreme poverty right so the people from villages they complain about the backwardness of their areas the point except that you know he suggests a solution he says that it would be a great relief work to kill all these people in one stroke you know for him mass killing is the easiest and the quickest remedy to put put an end to all their pains and sufferings see what solution he has suggested he suggests that it would be easiest it would be the easiest means he doesn't have any other alternative in mind he suggests that these people should be killed in one go mass killing should be done right so this is the quickest and the easiest solution to relieve these people of their pains and sufferings because no other way is there you know the point first longs for the of all these poor people at one stroke but whenever he regains his wisdom whenever you know he becomes wise he thinks that it has been an inhuman idea of course that is in human right to kill the poor people he further thinks that you know he should be killed so that he won't see the miserable plight of the poor people you know sometimes we feel that we wanted to cure something if that cannot be cured because that is unbearable for us to see we feel that either this situation we ended but the poet says that it would be really inhuman to kill all these people because the poet is suffering at their sight so that's why he suggests the audience he suggests the reader that he should be killed the poet should be killed so that he should not see the miserable plight of these poor people right so he actually wants that the country people should be liberated from their poverty and if there is no way out to liberate them to free them from their poverty he wants the people to kill him so that he should not look at their poor and miserable faces so that's all about the poem I hope you must have liked it since this is one of the modern points and we can easily relate to that so have a nice day happy learning thank yougood morning dear students I hope you all are good at all sir children today we will do our fifth poem of our English reader book flamingo so the title of the poem is a roadside stand a roadside stand as one of the finest creations of one of the finest poets of America that is Robert Frost right so you know as it is also written by the editor here in the praise of the point that Robert Frost is a highly acclaimed American poet of the 20th century right he is a modern point so Robert Frost wrote about characters people and landscapes mean sceneries right his points are concerned with human tragedies and fears his reaction to the complexities of life and his ultimate acceptance of his burdens you know you all must have heard the names of his most famous poems one of them is stopping by woods on a snowy evening that is extremely extremely famous and that is prescribed there and the syllabus of class 12 as well Punjab the school Education Board next is birches mending walls like these are a few very well-known pieces of Robert Frost right so today we are going to read has I would say one of the masterpieces that is a roadside stand you know Robert Frost presents the life lives of poor deprived people like with pitiless clarity and deepest sympathy and humanity right so in this point Frost has brought out the apathy of the rich city dwellers towards the poor roadside sellers right so the honors you may say the small honors of these roots side shops they have made a new shed with the hope of selling their vegetables and fruits to the city people who often pass by that road in their cars right but unfortunately the rich and sophisticated people of the city are insensitive to the needs of these shared owners right the poet is deeply agonized to see the miseries of these shared owners a roadside stand the title clearly means that something that stands on the side of the road right so her children listen carefully what is the meaning of this phrase in the poem in the point roadside stand means that those shorts those hurts like shops right those are hot light hot like shops which are opened by the poor helpless village people right the shops the small shops I repeat that are established by the poor and helpless Village People in order to yet right in order to obtain their livelihood right so in this point Robert Frost has beautifully presented how these people are ignored by the rich folk of the towns entities right how they are treated by them but actually they need what actually they want and see is that fulfilled or not right so let's start reading the text of the Boyne the little old house was out with a little new shaped the little old house was out with a little new in front at the edge of the road where the traffic sped sped means where the traffic moves with speed a roadside stand that too pathetically bled bled means to request right it would not be fair to say for a dole of bread right dole of bread means you can compare it to a small gift but for some of the money the - whose flow supports the flower of cities from sinking and withering faint right so see a children the writer tries to say here that he has observed a little shed in front of a little house that means some farmer with small land holding or you know little land holding would be there and that farmer has probably established a small shop in front office who right in front of his home like probably he has a provide some of the space of his house and some of the space of the road on which his house is situated right so he has set up a new little shop of himself himself right so he ever there says that in front at the edge of the road where the traffic spell it means so the shed is there at the edge of the road at the corner of the road that where the traffic moves with speed where the cars and you know other vehicles of the people with speed they take turns with speed right a roadside stand that too pathetically played so what he means to say here the point makes it clear that you know the honor of the house has built a temporary shed at the edge of the road so what he says that too pathetically bled it means he is probably pleading the rich people pleading mini Tigana right he is probably requesting the rich people it would not be fair to say for a duel of bread right so he makes it very clear that the purpose was not to get free money like arms and baking the boy it makes it very clear that the stall owner expects the people to stop there and buy something from him so that he can also earn some cash money it is this cash money which flows in our cities and people lead luxurious life there right so the poet here wants to say that the shed owners have established small sheds in order to sell their vegetables and fruits which they grow in their limited area of land and you know they cannot afford to buy a separate land in order to set up a shop or a shed there that's why they have you know taken some of the space from their house and some of the space from the road in order to no sell their vegetables and fruits that are grown by them on their land right so why they have set up so not because they want to begged from the rich people it is because they expect that the people who pass by their truth made by some vegetable or fruit from them they may buy something from them and the Village People - can feel some money in their hand they too want to hold that cash money with which the people of cities are living a luxurious life right so I hope that's very much clear next he talks off the Polish traffic past with the mind ahead the Polish traffic here means the sophisticated and you know the you may see rich people well-off people sophisticated city people they pass in their lavish vehicles right or if ever aside a movement then out of sorts at having the landscape melt landscape means scenery right the view mayor means to spoil mayor spoiled right mad with the Heartless paint of science that with n turned wrong and s turned wrong offered for sale wild berries in wooden quartz a very deep meaning line a beautiful line so see children I would like to quote an example in order to make you understand this line in a proper manner so children you must have seen people who have opened a small business of their own suppose a girl a young girl has opened her own beauty parlor right so she may not have that much money in order to buy a stand by a proper stand and she may not have that much money to give to a painter in order to write her name and occupation properly on that stand and she may have requested some of her acquaintances or one of her friends to do the task for her and they too are ignorant like the girl and the often right wrong spellings you would often see that the poor people who have prepared their own stands in order to advertise their products they often mistake certain things they often you know right wrong spellings so that thing is written here of science that with n turned wrong and has turned wrong right so in the third line which I have read the poet says that at having the landscape made it means rich people's view is that when they look out of their vehicles they say that these villagers have totally spoiled the view of the nature means in villages one can see beautiful sceneries so the rich people often say that these people buy establish their sheds outside their houses they have occupied half of the road it is obviously inconvenient for the vehicles to pass by that road and you know he say further says that they have spoiled the road with the Heartless paint at less you know at lesser means poor which is not proper right which is not done by a perfect person which is not done by an artist right so I would explain this paragraph again in a while you know the poet says that the well-off sophisticated and rich city people they pass in their lavish vehicles from these roads right so you know the mind of these rich people is focused on their destination means the place where they want to reach ultimately their mind is focused on their destiny and you know they are oblivious of the roadside stand they are totally oblivious of this they do not generally stop or show concern for these poor villagers right even you know if they pause there for a moment right even if the park was there for a minute to have a look at these people they are always critical of the village people they are always critical of them why what I just told you they feel that these village people have spoiled the beauty of the nature with their indecent wind Atlas filled with that wind that is not beautiful that is not attractive as I told you if they have if they don't have the money obviously they would ask someone some friend or some acquaintance to do the tasks for them and that is not done in the perfect manner suppose a person has to open a fruit shop they may not have that much money in order to pay the painter for the preparation of the board they just write it on the walls that this is a fruit shop right and if they write themselves obviously they are illiterate or they are less educated they often write incorrect Spelling's right they often write in an unattractive manner so that's why that's what the city people feel the city people feel that these rustics have spoiled the beauty of the landscape beauty of the scenery with their indecent paintings right so they show annoyance they show anger as the direction signs are you know also turned wrong they do not know any interest they do not show an interest in the things being sold there right you know such as blackberries as it is mentioned back bear are you not kept in wooden crates there they do not show any interest in buying those fruits and vegetables in fact they are critical of the illiteracy and you know attitude of these village people who have established small sheds in order to run their livelihood right so I hope that's also clear next line or group necked golden squash with silver verts group net golden squash I hope you have heard of this or beauty rest in a beautiful mountain scene you have the money but if you want to be mean why keep your money this crossly and go along right so what the right what the poet wants to say here he says that or group necked golden squash with silver watch group neck means obviously some of them are not perfect in growing vegetables and fruits right so what they often do you know they often plant some of the vegetables that crookneck means those vegetables grow while their necks are bent some of their necks are bent right so some of their neck servant it means some of those vegetables are not in proper shape right squash you know squash means a kind of God right so these veggies and fruits the people sail with silver quoi silver words means walks right or beauty rest in a beautiful mounting scene you know this roadside stand honors they sell vile berries in wooden carts wooden containers and they also sell twisted neck golden squash twisted net means the the vegetables or the fruits the neck of which is bent twisted not straight right so squash fruit with silver lump on it right as we have seen in that so those silver thread like lumps are there spread there on those fruits right for decoration you know the point further says that the city people disapprove of this right so you know a moment of respite is felt in beautiful surroundings of that village city me will feel that the roadside stand spoils the beauty of the mountain scenery which can be seen very easily from that view so these rich people are so selfish right they are so selfish that they do not want to share their money with the poor people but you know why they get angry with the rustics is not understood by the point the poet is angry over the attitude of these rich people who actually do not cooperate who actually do not appreciate the practices the little practices of these small farmers right so I hope that's also clear up to now next he says that the herd to the scenery wouldn't be my complaint the herd to the scenery wouldn't be my complaint so much as the trusted soro of what is unsaid but as unsaid means what is not expressed in words right that is visible but not expressed in words I would explain it let me complete this Tanger so much as the trusting sort of what is unsaid how far from the city we make a roadside stand and ask for some City money to feel in hand so try if it will not make our being expand and give us the rest of the moving pictures promise that the party in power is said to be keeping from us you know now he is talking of politics the poet talks of the politics the as you know conveyed in such a roundabout manner that the people of villages are often be fooled by the politicians right so the point doesn't want to you know complain about the harm that these people call cause to the natural scenery you know in fact he is more concerned with the pain and sorrow of the unsaid words right unsaid words means the farmers they keep on looking at the faces of the people who come in big vehicles who pass from those roads and big vehicles they do not complain of anything in fact they keep their complaints with them they too are angry with these city people because you know the city people have to buy certain things these veggies and fruits so it would of it would obviously you know cause them a bit less if they buy it from here if they buy it from these village folks in fact the village people are annoyed with these city people why because they feel that they can buy something from us right the village people feel that the rich City people should buy these veggies and fruits from them but they do not say anything they are annoyed they are angry but they do not express their anger they never express their anger right so what the poet says here he says that he doesn't want to complain about the harm that these people are causing to the natural scenery by hiding it right he is actually concerned with them pain and sorrow of the unsaid words unsaid word means that the problem is there right problem is already there but that is not complained by the concern that not complaint by the farmers right so he is concerned about that pain and sorrow right of the unsaid words and he is actually having a you missing empathy with these people he can feel their pain right he further says that the poet further says that the country people country we will means the people of rural areas people of villages so these village people trust their rich brothers in City so they think that they would come to their help but feel extremely sad extremely disappointed when their trust is broken by these city people through their indifference like this is nothing at that time but you know they're bad you may say ugly facial expressions and even their silence speak about they're cold and indifferent attitude towards poor people right so they don't say anything but their facial expressions say everything so that is what the poet has called unsaid right so they don't say anything but they express everything with their facial expressions right the first that the point say is that these villagers establish roadside stand far away from the city and they really hope as it's a repetition so the explanation would be same he says that they really hope that some money from city dwellers should pass into their hands and they must be able to sustain their livelihood and could live a better life right you know by letting some money pass into the hands of rustic people by the city dwellers so it will keep the promise of providing comfortable life which ruling parties have actually failed to do so the farmers are not even complaining that this that promise was done to us right and that is not fulfilled actually politicians you know the ones who only make false promises to provide better living conditions are never fulfilled by them in fact the village people are expecting that instead of begging anything from the government so they should they are expecting her that these things their commodities their grown-up vegetables and fruits should be purchased by the city people so that they can feel some cash in hand right so I hope that's also clear next s next paragraph it is in the news that all these pitiful kin are to be brought out and mercifully gathered in to live in villages next to the theater and store where they won't have to think for themselves anymore right where they would have to think of for themselves any more you know King hair means relatives kin hair means brothers and sisters you may say so what the court is saying here that he has heard it it is in the news that he has heard it that all the poor people whom the poet considers as his brothers or relatives they would be taken out they would be drawn out of their land properties right he must have the poet must have heard it in in the news right what he heard that the land properties of these people will be taken and they will be drawn out of their properties their lands would be brought or acquired for the commercial development commercial development business purpose right they weren't the stand honors those shared owners right to vacate and you know shift to the rural areas they promised the villagers that they would get a spectable life and a good space in the village in the village then they need not to be concerned about their livelihood they would not be any need to feel concerned about their sustenance right however like they will turn these people into you know free Wanderers aimless Wanderers who only eat and watch movies all the time like all their creative pursuits would be stopped the whatever talent they have in themselves would be crushed right so I hope that's also clear next line while greedy good-doers beneficent beasts of prey greedy good tors beneficial beads of prey swarm over their lives and forcing benefits so what the writer is referring to her he is referring to the beneficent ones you know the generous ones beasts means animals right and to enforce means to compel someone to do something and force to compel the force someone simply to force someone to do something so the coiler continues that are calculated to soothe them out of their wit's and by teaching them how to sleep this sleep always destroy their sleeping at night the ancient way you know what they actually do the people you know they will be settled in villages and given jobs he has heard it that they will be settled in the villages and they will be given jobs this is what the developers have told him developers have told means with the people who are there in the development tasks right but in fact you know children these businessmen are serving their own interests these commercial people are just fulfilling this fish motives right so they will turn these people into mere wage earners and you know working in night shifts and during throughout the day you know they will make or they will be made false promises right they teach innocent people to sleep over or you know ignore their sufferings they will motivate them not to pay any attention towards their problems in sufferings but in reality you know they snatch their peace they snatch their peaceful movements and sleep through exploitation right so they will snatch their peace and sleep right through exploitation so you know greedy good doers have been compared to beasts of prey the one who preys Shekar banana so what to do the greater you know what these greedy doers do actually these greedy doers you know they swarm over you they they want over the poor peasants in order to exploit them in every possible manner right so they take their sleep otherwise they take their sleep indirectly so I hope that is also clear to you next paragraph sometimes I feel myself I can hardly be heard the thought of so much childish launching in vain you know sometimes the poet feels that he it is unbearable for him to see the childish launching of the people you know childish means in negative sense childlike desire childish launching means childlike desire of these people who wait for their customers like they are so hopeful that they keep on waiting for the city people to stop there and buy something from them right so what do you see he says this sometimes I feel myself I can hardly bear the thought of so much childish launching in vain you know that childlike behavior child like launching means their desires a child often expresses some of the things are impossible some of the things children ask are actually impossible in reality so the same the poet has compared here he says that the sadness that looks right loves means hands that loves near the open window there that waits all day in almost open prayer you know they pray to God for the customers we have seen children we have seen people that they pray for lot of money that they pray for a lot of comforts and luxuries in their life right we have seen such kind of people but have you seen the people who pray for their customers who pray that they should get somebody to whom they can sell whatever they have produced by doing hard labor right so he says that for the sequel of breaks sorry for the squeal of brakes the sound of a stopping car of all the thousand selfish cars that pass just one to inquire what the farmers prices are right so he expresses a very different idea the point C says that it is really unbearable it is really painful to see the childlike desires of the people who pulley wait for their customers to stop who hopefully wait for the city people to stop there and buy something so there is a great deal of sadness right a great deal of sadness as you know The Stand honors wait near the open window like they are praying for the people to stop they don't force them to stop but they pray to God that these people should stop right so they wait for the loud shrieks of brakes you know children it's written for the squeal of brakes means the voice that is produced by the brakes of vehicles you know that squeal of brakes means that voice of brakes that sound off brakes when those are applied we often heard a loud squeal right and they also wait for the sound of stopping cars right so you know it raises their walk for some city money that could flow in the hands they go wheelie you know they're both is waste because you know that one car out of thousands would stop there one car out of thousands means a thousand cars passed from that road only one who'd stop there and that would also stop to enquire about the prices of the farmers crops right you know the to stop there so that they can make they can know the difference between they're priced farmers price and the price at which they are sold the vegetables and fruits and the cities right so I hope that's also clear to all of you so the voice says that these people vainly hope that any one car would stop there but whosoever stops they stop for inquiring the prices of the products sold by farmers right so they only stop to inquire the farmers prices of the crops or the commodities they see right so reading the next danger just one to inquire what farmers prices are and one did stop but only to blow up grass in using the yard to back and turn around and another to ask the way to where it was bound and another to ask could this elite a gallon of gas they couldn't this crossly they had none didn't it see such a low all these are the expressions of anger so what the poet wants to say in this danger like when any of the car stops there there hope shares hopes are shattered for it right vie shattered because the only stop there to dig up the grass right pick up the grass why so that they can use the yard to back and turn their car or their vehicle right if other people stop there why they stop they stop because they want to ask the direction you know we also have traveled to many of the places say if we feel that the road is a new one for us and that we don't know exactly the way where we want to reach so we often stop our car on some of the highways or by the side of roads of some of the villages and we often asked the local people there where this load road leads to right so we ask directions so same is the case the poet is describing he actually you know whenever we stop our vehicle right in front of some people selling their wages or their commodities by establishing a small shed whenever we stop our vehicles right in front of them they - first of all you know generate a ray of hope that we would buy something from them but the moment we ask them the way like to which this road is going so immediately their hopes are shattered and they begin to feel dejected right so same the poi talks here that the cars only stop there either to take a round turn or they stop there to ask the way right so next line in the next two lines he expresses a lot of anger you know what he says he says that sometimes some people stop there to inquire if they can get a gallon of gas if that means that they want to inquire if the required fuel is available there so the point becomes very angry here see he describes that they couldn't this crossly means in such a you know of cross manner in such an angry manner he says they couldn't they had none didn't it see didn't it see means like he is very much infuriated at the city Fox ignorant because the poet feels that why they couldn't see that these people cannot sell fuel these people don't have the capacity to save fuel and sell it right so the people at the stand get annoyed especially whenever they are asked for like do you sell fuel or can you fill this gallon of gas so the people feel angry at such questions because they feel that Conda city people see that we are here for selling our vegetables we are here for selling you know a few a few fruits so how can we sell a gallon of gas or how can we save fuel to them so in this manner the poet expresses his anger right so reading the last stanza that is the concluding one and see what the ultimate stroke the poet makes knowing one can know in country money the country scale of gain the requisite lift of spirit has never been found that a quiz it lifts of spirit has never been found also the voice of the country seems to complain I can't help owning the great relief it would be read it again I can't help owning the great relief it would be to put these people at one stroke out of their pain it means as the boy it would suggest some solution right when he says he the require the requisite lift spirit requisite means the required desires right so he says that he really wants to relieve these people and he wants to relieve these people of their pain in one stroke it means in one action only and the name and then next day as I come back to the scene saying you know as he become sane he comes back to sanity I wonder how I should like you to come to me and offered to put me gently out of my pain you know he describes the miserable condition of people living from hand to mouth he suggests a solution and see what he says he sadly states that the prosperity in the city is you know not trickling down in the villages at all the money is not passing from the rich people to the poor ones right so no amount of material gains in the country is uplifting the villages and hence you know the spirit of these poor people remains dejected remains depressed because of extreme poverty right so the people from villages they complain about the backwardness of their areas the point except that you know he suggests a solution he says that it would be a great relief work to kill all these people in one stroke you know for him mass killing is the easiest and the quickest remedy to put put an end to all their pains and sufferings see what solution he has suggested he suggests that it would be easiest it would be the easiest means he doesn't have any other alternative in mind he suggests that these people should be killed in one go mass killing should be done right so this is the quickest and the easiest solution to relieve these people of their pains and sufferings because no other way is there you know the point first longs for the of all these poor people at one stroke but whenever he regains his wisdom whenever you know he becomes wise he thinks that it has been an inhuman idea of course that is in human right to kill the poor people he further thinks that you know he should be killed so that he won't see the miserable plight of the poor people you know sometimes we feel that we wanted to cure something if that cannot be cured because that is unbearable for us to see we feel that either this situation we ended but the poet says that it would be really inhuman to kill all these people because the poet is suffering at their sight so that's why he suggests the audience he suggests the reader that he should be killed the poet should be killed so that he should not see the miserable plight of these poor people right so he actually wants that the country people should be liberated from their poverty and if there is no way out to liberate them to free them from their poverty he wants the people to kill him so that he should not look at their poor and miserable faces so that's all about the poem I hope you must have liked it since this is one of the modern points and we can easily relate to that so have a nice day happy learning thank you\n"
