Traveling Through The Dark
Traveling Through The Dark
Poem By: William Stafford
This poem is written by William Stafford. In this poem, he presents a great conflict between two realities, efficiency and responsibility and emotion warmers than good judgement.
The poet sees a dead deer while travelling on narrow road. He finds the deer on the edge of Wilson river road. It is the best idea to push the dead body to steep valley changing the direction of the car can cause the death more deer.
He gets behind the car and stands by the carcass. It has already stiffened. The poet drags the deer of. He finds that she is large in the belly. He touches the side of the deer and finds that side is still warm. The fawn is lying there, it is still alive but unfortunately it will be never born as its mother is already dead. Here physical action stops as the emotional action begins. The poet thinks about the feat of fawn and becomes sentimental. He can't decide for a moment, what to do with the found at last, He takes a decision to drag the deer of to be sage from the another her accident.
