Report to Wordsworth‚ a poem by Boey Kim Cheng‚ is one that speaks of the path of destruction through nature that man is leaving behind him. I personally find the poem powerful and extremely convincing‚ in the sense that it manages to challenge the reader very objectively. ‘You should be here‚ Nature has need of you’ involves the reader directly‚ and the use of a Capital letter personifies nature in such a way it makes one feel her pain. The following lines are significantly symbolic‚ as the words
