A brief analysis of the poem "Goodbye Party for Miss Pushpa TS" by Nissim Ezekiel, taking into consideration the cultural aspects surrounding the poem, is the following:

  • The poem imitates the way an Indian man would talk in English as he makes a speech during a farewell party to Miss Pushpa. We can notice his excessive use of continuous tenses, even in places where the idea of an action in progress is not necessary.
  • We can also notice that the speaker loses his train of thought. That is an interesting way the author has found of mirroring a real-life, spontaneous speech. It is quite common for a person who is talking to get lost for a moment.
  • We can mention the exaggerated compliments about Miss Pushpa's sweet temper and helpfulness. This is most likely a cultural aspect, and these qualities must be relevant in Indian society.
  • The author is not concerned with meter or rhyme for this poem, since his purpose is to imitate a natural, spontaneous speech. Each of the 7 stanzas focuses on a different point in the speaker's train of thought.

<h3>Tips to write an analysis of a poem:</h3>
  • Read the whole poem more than once, paying attention to different aspects. First, try to understand what the poem is about, what its general message is.
  • Then, pay attention to the poem's structure - rhymes, meter, stanzas, rhythm. These elements can have an impact in the poem's message.
  • Notice the author's word choice as well, such as the presence of dialect, or the use of sensory language (words that appeal to the five senses). Figurative language, such as metaphor or personification, should also be commented on.
