Opinions

  • The author expresses a sense of stagnation and repetitiveness in their daily routine, highlighted by the "consonant room" and "regular coffee."
  • There is a palpable feeling of being trapped within the confines of winter, described as "frigid boundaries of frosty December."
  • The poem reflects a deep personal struggle, with references to "trembling hands" and "weeping eyes," suggesting emotional turmoil.
  • The burning of the diary and memories symbolizes a desire to break free from the past and embrace renewal, indicated by the "desire for Resurrection weather."
  • The transformation of the "three-cornered" room signifies a shift in the author's emotional state, possibly towards a more passionate or focused perspective, as the "intensity of the love sign has become fanatical."

The consonant room, The regular coffee, The constant rolling chair and that’s me, Even Outside the window, all the scenario is similar, They are off the frigid boundaries of frosty December That’s what it is unto the icy January night falls, The identical feeling of bruises and my desire for Resurrection weather also, An edge of the parallel room, Hereabouts are few gifts scattered with some pages Only I, and a furnace, And Inside this furnace A heap of smoldering coals Also, the haze rising from that heap and the blaze Trembling hands, weeping eyes, That diary blazing beside the pile of lighting ashes and burning reminiscences too That’s me — that’s the pen in my grasp But the square room has become “three-cornered” now, The intensity of the love sign has become fanatical now!
