ICU by Grace chua. How does the poet's use of the phrase "I can't see" in stanza 3 help develop the theme of the poem?

Answer and Explanation:

"ICU" by Grace Chua is a poem that deals with the loss of a loved one and the understanding we have of death. The last stanza is the following:

But I can't see

for the life of me

the far-off

places

to which

you

stray

When the speaker says that she "can't see" those places, she means she cannot understand death nor what happens after it. She can surely understand pain. As she watches her loved one lying in a hospital bed, she can sense death is only a matter of time. She knows that person will soon be gone, and that she will hurt because of it. But where will that person go? What happens then? That is something she cannot see.

the answer should be d) he was one of those young thousands who greeted the war with a certain amount of relief, welcoming the liberation from webs of tangled emotion" since it is the best option because it shows his desire to free himself.
