The short story “Civil Peace” has been written by Chinua Achebe. The thieves in the story are very bold and arrogant. But when Jonathan's family began to yell, the thieves responded to them by helping them. The thieves threatened them and mocked at them. They mocked them by crying out as the way Jonathan's family was crying out. The story is set in Eastern Nigeria right after the end of the Civil War.
Hello there if you are talking about "pretty words" by Elinor Wylie then.. I think the tone for the poem is admiring be cause when Wylie says "Words shy and dappled, deep eyed deer in herds" and, "I love words opalescent, cool and pearly", it shows her admiration for all sorts of words. When Wylie says in line 1 " poets make pets of pretty, docile words", she means that you can command words to do whatever you want if you know how to use em.
Theme: poets understand the uniqueness, weight, and beauty that words can hold and they know how to use them.
So pretty much here's a little summary: the speaker is comparing words to pets, and how they can be 'tamed'.
Hopefully that all helps!
