Bronx Masquerade


What I think of Chankara is that she is a girl that gets hit a lot from her boyfriend. I learned about that she is scared of her boyfriend that is why she gets hit a lot from him. The inference that I could make about this poem is that Chankara's sister is letting Chankara's boyfriend hit her because it Chankara says that her sister told her that he would not hit her again but he keeps on hitting her. The inference that I could make about Chankara is that she is sooner or later is going to the cops because there comes a time that people get tired of others that are hitting them and then they go to the cops. I could connect this to the world because some people especially ladies get hit a lot and then there comes a time that they get so tired and mad that they go to the cops to report the one that is hitting her they also could end up being murdered if they do not report their abuse. The poetry reveals about Chankara that she is a frightened girl and that maybe she needs help but she have to stand up for herself not for nobody else. The bet word that describes Chankara is frightened because she is so scared that her boyfriend hit her again. I think the meaning of this poem is to not let nobody hit you that even your boyfriend because then they could end up killing you so you have to act now before it is too late.
