This is my favorite poem that we have read so far this semester, but I especially liked the final two lines. In the final two lines, Christopher writes, “towering over them / and filling them with dread of heights”. I interpret this to mean that sometimes we create things that instill fear in others, and I think that is especially relevant today with the advances in technology and many people fearing how far it will go. These tall buildings that are being constructed are bringing about a fear of heights, which we didn’t really have before, since we could not get that high. And today we have many new fears related to the advancements in technology.
