Expl

Answer 2

The metaphor indicates that the poem's speaker api is very strict.

Step-by-step explanation:

The metaphor is a figure of speech that promotes a very subjective and implicit comparison about two things that can be unclear, but highly related.

As we can see in lines 5-8 of the poem shown above, the speaker of the poem affirms that he has his father as a judge, even if he does not have a court. The metaphor exists in the comparison between the country and a judge inside a court, showing that the father is an extremely strict man.
