Respuesta :

The correct answer among the choices is the fourth option. The speaker's father in the poem "Tattoo" by Gregg Shapiro frustrates the speaker with his silence regarding the past. His father does not talk about his painful experiences in the past. This made him emotionally distant to his son.

I believe the answer is: Silence

Gregg's shapiro tattoo describes the story of number tattoo that his father has that he received when he was branded by nazi soldiers to be put into the gas chamber. Despite the suffering , the fathers stay silent and refused to share his emotional burden.
