Show transcript
The speaker works in his fathers' shop and lives with his wife and parents above the shop. The speaker often neglects his work in the shop and receives complaints from customers. The wife is unconventional and has an acrimonious relationship with her husband's parents. The speaker and wife have a very close, loving and intimate relationship. Although the poem is not autobiographical it does echo some aspects of Nagra's own life.
