1. Read the given extract from the poem and do the activities that follow: [9]
Blind Man on a Revolving Chair
Dozing and regretting all day long
Like a withered bamboo lamenting its hollowness
Opening wounds all day long
Like a sick dove pecking its own breast
Weeping softly all day long
Over sorrows which are unspoken
Like a pine forest in its solitude
My feet are set in a tiny space
Sheltered by a mushroom umbrella
- Bhupi Sherchan
