Read the poem and answer questions At dawn must I rise to till the rock That our land has turned into The land where on we'd gleefully harvested paddy Planted and nurtured and tended on plots marshy Our woes are bloody woes of accursed revenges Of the land spirits aggrieved by paltry human respect For the life of fellow man by his fellow Kindred blood has counted for less than no value Brother's wife has been wife to other brother's brother Communal loot has emptied our country silos The earth has stopped breathing and sighed Soldered tears has the moon shed The earth was scorched at noon-day night And our land has turned to hoeing rock.
