<span>the soil 
Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod. 

We need to get the line correct. And we need to go back just a little bit to get the tone. The short answer is that the first stanza of the poem ends with this line. It is a particularly difficult and subtle poem to read because most of the meaning is hidden from us.  The line that you asking about means that we are so tamed by civilization that we cannot walk in nature without shoes. We cannot feel the good earth because our feet are too frail to walk on ground.

But to get the full impact you have to go back to the end of the previous line and get it's meaning as well. "The soil is bare" means that nothing will grow on soil that has been stripped clean and all its nutrients robbed by man's interference and stupidity, and his inability to understand what he is doing to the land.

It is as though he (man) is feeding the soil with nothing but ice cream, robbing it of its ability to regenerate itself. As a result, the soil is now barren weakened by inattentiveness.

And we cannot walk in her without something between us and the soil. 

It's a sad and angry poem.  </span>

olya-2409 [2.1K]

At the beggining the motive of the animals to start a revolution comes from the mistreat of Mr. Jones, he does a terrible job and left a side the animals.

A wise pig start the tough of start to lead the farm withtout humans involved and the most important:  ¨equality for all¨…But something happend, and the wise pig dies.

Everyone thinks that the idea left for the wise pig is perfect, except from a donkey that is very cynical.  

Anyway they start the revolution and other pigs asume the leadership because they are the most ¨intelligent¨ animals on the farm, the ¨equality¨ goes down the toilet from that moment and the madness beggin.

A conflict also start to arise between two pigs, Napoleón and Snowball, the first one has the ¨bright¨ idea of not doing anything and just be in charge  bossing around, and Snowball in Exchange wants to teach the animals to create a widmill, logically the Snowball idea is better and he wins.

The shift in the history start when in this case the pigs had unlimited access to the powee without bond.

Sadly Napoleón uses bad force against everyone and start to be the ¨boss¨ of the farm, Snowball get out the scene and all the animals start to blame him, animals are against each other, breaking all the pacific rules that once existed between them, the life in the farm is worst everyday, the culminating point is when the pigs decide to kill and old horse, very hard working who is ready to retire.  

In Synthesis they  ended up being everythin they were against to, they behave like dictatorial humans, the ones that started the mess in a beginning, even they walk in two legs, they even can be worst than them.  

With a very simple language the history show us the facts that arise the consumerism, the corruption lead by the hunger in power.
