meaning in the following passage (paragraphs
i dance wildly inside myself; i yell within, i whoop; i shake my assegai above my
head, i hurl it true to the markyooww! i am in the jungle and living in the jungle
way. my face is painted red and yellow and my body is painted blue. my pulse is
throbbing like a war drum. i want to slaughter something-give pain, give death to
what, i do not know. but the pie ends. the men of the orchestra wipe their lips and
rest their fingers. i creep back slowly to the veneer we call civilization with the last

Read this excerpt from "the light of gandhi's lamp" by hilary kromberg inglis, in which she describes driving to the police station where her sister is being detained. to avoid looking at the blackened windows at the top of the building and thinking about the history of who had died or been tortured there, i always looked instead at the little chinese restaurant on the opposite side of the road. how does this passage affect the text? it conveys, with great subtlety, the conflict she felt over having a sister who would break the law and end up in the custody of the police. it conveys, without any implied moral judgment, that those who fought against apartheid considered themselves to be soldiers in a just war. it conveys, with an extended metaphor, the idea that being detained by the police in this society was regarded as a badge of honor. it conveys, with direct language, the view held by many anti-apartheid activists that the police often acted in brutal and unlawful ways.
