    The lyric "Where There’s a Wall" by Joy Kogawa utilizes symbolism and imagery to upgrade the adequacy of the sonnet’s message. Like most different ballads‚ "Where There’s a Wall" contains a few layers of importance‚ and requires the peruser to burrow through the little points of interest and samples keeping in mind the end goal to see the broad view.

He uses a few different examples to illustrate God’s unusual cruelty‚ and while at first glance they may seem random‚ all three share the same theme‚ a theme that is extremely important to

Moreover‚ the idea
