Extremely easy by words but in reality�, a lot of things don`t
correspond. Not everything is so rosy..!!

world war 2

This poem is most definitely about world war 2. These innocent people were
forced to endure hard conditions and prattle to the Germans or else they
would be assailed. They were not "willing" to do anything.

NEVER closes. I grew up in Westchester - listened with such hope to the
radio announcer re. school closings. Death & taxes may be certain, but the
fact that Peas & Carrots would still be on, well, that's even more assured.

It's definently a peaceful revolution with the "anarchic snow", that waves
the "white flag" of surrender.

Notice How Everything Shuts Down, and how he uses the sensual imagery to
shut down every sense but touch...this is when the school children are most
in touch with life, I feel he is saying, when they are living their lives
OUTSIDE the classroom.
