Do you have options to fill in the blanks
After reading the poem, I felt like the reason why author breaks up words and <span>separates stanzas is to force readers to stop and read each word carefully. Every word reflects the theme and if you will be particular to every single one, then you will se that all elements must be considered individually so that a reader can appreciate their true value.
Do hope you will agree with me and find this answer helpful!

Explanation:
Direct speech is a type of speech that quotes the words of a speaker verbatim, while reported/indirect speech does not quote the speaker verbatim but conveys the word of the speaker in his own words.
<span>In "Through the Tunnel," the negative connotations and dangerous imagery associated with the "wild bay" help to convey the theme that growing up can be a painful and scary process. Jerry longs to grow up and to fit in with the "older boys -- men to Jerry" who swim and dive at the wild bay rather than remain on the "safe beach" with his mother, a beach later described as "a place for children." The way to the wild bay is marked with "rough, sharp rock" and the water shows "stains of purple and darker blue." The rocks sound as if they could do a great deal of damage to the body, and the stains are described like a bruise. It sounds painful. Then, "rocks lay like discoloured monsters under the surface" of the water and "irregular cold currents from the deep shocked [Jerry's] limbs." This place sounds frightening and alarming and unpredictable. Given that this is the location associated with maturity, with the time after childhood, we can understand that the process of growing up and becoming a man is a time that is fraught with dangers and fear, because Jerry endures both in the "wild bay."</span>
