i) The poets attitude towards his subjects (what he is writing about)

ii) A poet may choose to write about attitudes that are not his. His subjects (characters in his poem) can have their
own attitudes towards one another or towards a certain issue e.g in the poem, ‘Building the Nation (9) what is the
drivers attitude towards the PS? Sometimes a poet may show disapproval without using negative words. In the
poem, ‘Cow for breakfast’(16) the author disapproves his subject without using negative words instead he makes us
laugh at him. This is called satire. Satire is the mocking or ridiculing or ridiculing people and their characteristics
to expose their foolishness and weaknesses.
