How does the speaker characterize her husband and her father in the last two stanzas? Might the "Daddy" of the last line of the poem refer to something more than the speaker's father? Explain. 4. What emotional associations does the title "Daddy" possess? Are those associations reinforced or contradicted by the poem? 5. Do you like this poem? Why, or why not?

Answers:

1. The poem exhibits the speaker's hatred for the father: Lines 6, 7, 41 revealed that she had wanted to kill her father and was always scared of him. She won't want to kill someone she loved. So, the poem depicted hatred for the father. In lines 1-4 the poet compares herself to a foot that was stuck in her father's black shoe. She makes use of this imagery to imply and explain how she has been crushed by her father emotionally for 30 years.

2. She married a man who was just like her father. She termed the man - a vampire who made her to suffer for seven years. The man brought back the memories of what she passed through in the hands of her father.

3. She characterized them as vampires.The "Daddy" of the last line refers to her father as a "b***". At the close of the poem, she decides to stop chasing her father.

4. The title "Daddy" possesses an intimate and loving emotional connection, a father-daughter association. But that kind of association was contradicted in the poem but rather depicted a tyrant father.

5. No! This is because the poem didn't depict any form of forgiveness. It was written out of a battered, bruised and betrayed heart and didn't depict the need for true forgiveness.
