The study delves into the intricate tapestry woven by Rich, shedding light on the poet's deliberate choices and the profound impact of this metaphorical journey on the overall interpretation of the poem. By immersing readers in the depths of the extended metaphor, Rich invites them to reflect on the complexities of identity, the tumultuous journey through life, and the transformative process of plumbing one's personal depths. Through this rich and imaginative exploration, the poem resonates as a timeless testament to the universal human experience of self-discovery.
