Show transcript
Comparing the speaker to an “heiress” could imply that they are set to inherit the value of the natural world. However, imagery associated with the natural world is that of destruction which could show the damage humanity has done. Comparison to “tourist” could connect to how humanity exploits the natural world. On the other hand, “tourist” could link to how the speaker feels disconnected from their home and heritage.
