Show transcript
The repeated imagery of the "sea" implies that the Island Man feels a sense of freedom and peace in his dreams.
The use of free verse could reflect the freedom the Island Man feels when connected to the Caribbean.
The use of free verse could also suggest that the Island Man feels out of place in London.
The repetition could connect a sense of monotony and unhappiness to the Island Man's life in London.
The lack of punctuation could also show a lack of emotion and sense of monotony.
