Read "It's This Way" and answer the question.

It's This Way by Nazim Hikmet
1 I stand in the advancing light, my hands hungry, the world beautiful.
2 My eyes can't get enough of the trees— they're so hopeful, so green.
3 A sunny road runs through the mulberries, I'm at the window of the prison infirmary.
4 I can't smell the medicines— carnations must be blooming nearby.
5 It's this way: being captured is beside the point, the point is not to surrender.

A)It departs from a motif of loyalty and betrayal.
B)Rather than offering opinions, it demonstrates restraint.
C)Rather than figurative imagery, it relies on literal interpretation.
D)It employs elaborate and complex diction.
