- The poem refers to the daily life of a small African village.
- The events that take place in the village are spontaneous and non-standard, as is the organization of the stanzas and lines of the poem.
- Everything that happens in the village is very simple, nothing is highlighted, as well as the lines of the poem that do not have punctuation or rhymes.
