Flag

Question 1

Structure (Stanzas)

Answer 1

each stanza is in the shape of a flag showing the importance of the so called “piece of cloth”

Question 2

“its just a piece of cloth”

Answer 2

the repetition/anaphora shows how it should really only be a piece of cloth but it is much more important than it may seem

Question 3

“that brings a nation to its knees”

Answer 3

This is very ironic as it was just described as a piece of cloth but now it has the power to bring a whole nation down to its knees.
