Answer:

<h3>Realizing that the world is filled with strangers.</h3>

Explanation:

  • In the poem "Second Estrangement", the poet presents the image of an innocent child who realizes that the world is filled with strangers. She says that one does not realize how scary and estrange the world is until he/she is lost and all alone.
  • Through the lines "<em>only to see the face  look strangely down, utterly  foreign, utterly not the one  who loves you</em>", <u>the poet presents the idea of seeing the reality of life. </u>Just like the child, everyone of us think we are in a safe place until we see the reality of life.
  • Then she ends the poem with the lines "<em>How far the world you knew, & tall,  & filled, finally, with strangers."  </em>to ironically bring the message of life's cruelty and reality.

Answer:

Well its a often heard thing.

Explanation:

Words can cause more damage than the sword. The intellectual doesn't picks weapon but they pick pen, the sword that doesn't make destroy you at once, the sword which can't reverse its effect, a sword which cannot be used by everyone. The sword of the intellectual is the pen.

Governments were build, they fall. Monarchies were formed and were uprooted, rules were made and were broked. Peace happened and wars ended, this is what we can say is the strength of this 10 cm sword, the sword which cannot be used with irresponsibility of thoughts, its for the pure form of genius and not any day one guy. Men and women have made history on its nib, the world today at points stays free or captive by the nib of this sword. This is what the power of words are, that comes out of it.
