Iomhana Flashcards
There are a lot of images in the poem “stopology”
Tá go leor íomhánna sa dán “stadeolaíocht”
In the first image the poet is addicted to his phone
Da chéad íomha bíonn an file sáile san fhon cliste
This is an image that everyone recognises
Is íomha é seo a bhfuil aíthne ag gach duine
He forgets about the big life
Deanann sé dearmad ar an saol mor
There are a lot of people like this man in todays day
Tá go leor daoine cosúil leis an bhfear seo lá ata inniú
I push the app button and think
Bruaim cnaipe na haipe ag ceapadh gcuirfí ar an eolas mé
As well as that, the poet creates an image of a bus driver looking at at the man
Chomh maith leis sin, crathaíonn na file íomha den tiomanaí bus féachaint ar an bhfear
This man is addicted to his mobile phone
Ach bin an fear sáite san fhón cliste
The man doesn’t put his thumb out to stop the bus
Ní chuireannan fear a órdóg amach chun an bus a stopadh
Because of this, the bus continues on
De bharr seo léanann an bus ar aghaidh
