<u>Answer</u>:
There are no line breaks, since this is a prose poem
<u>Explanation:</u>
Literally Prose poem does not have line breaks. But while reading this kind of prose poem, the reader themselves will take a break not because of the punctuation but because of the breaks in the theme. In the poem Adolescence, the author draws a parallel between birds and human adolescence.
Here the nature of a caged bird is compared to the nature of the society as a child is trapped into an invisible cage called society. Hence while reading this poem, the reader takes a break while reflecting the fact but not of the punctuation. That is how Nin Andrews used enjambment and line length in his prose poem.
