The problem of xenophobia is people. Xenophobia is hatred or dislike of people in general. It's objective is often removal of those people in various ways. An entire nation can be xenophobic and nationalistic which can lead to numerous problems such as wars or genocides.
I have no idea................
The extended metaphor is life can be related to someone that sells people something, and that life sells beauty. I can conclude this because in the poem, many things which are considered beautiful are up for sale.
- the ocean's waves
- fire (warmth and comfort)
- children's faces (innocence, happiness, wonder)
- pine trees scents
- love (agape, eros, philia, etc.)
- "holy thoughts."
Hope this helps. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)
