Burning down the house...

To be honest, I don't really like these poems. I'm not a huge poetry fan, because it bores me and I don't really understand what they mean. Because of this, I feel unintelligent and I feel as though I am being smited by an inanimate object. Therefore, I don't really like these poems. However, I do think that they reflect Indian society a little bit through their mentioning of the caste system and religious views - such as, according to one poem, their God being everything around them. Caste differences are reflected in the poems by the wording chosen to describe a girl of a lower caste in one of the poems.
