SECTION A: POETRY from JO PHILLIPS ed: Poems Deep & Dangerous Remember to support your ideas with details from the writing. Read this poem, and then answer the question that follows it: Registers Out of the warm primordial cave of our conversations, Jack's gone. No more chit-chat under the blankets pegged over chairs and nipped in drawers. Throughout his first five years an ear always open, at worst ajar, I catch myself still listening out for sounds of him in the sensible house where nothing stirs but the washing machine which clicks and churns. I'm loosening his arms clasped round my neck, detaching myself from his soft protracted kiss goodbye. Good boy, diminishing down the long corridors into the huge unknown assembly hall, each word strange, even his name on Miss Cracknell's tongue. (Michael Laskey) How does Laskey make Registers so moving?
