    Commentary – Piano and Drums by Gabriel Okara In Gabriel Okara’s poem‚ “Piano and Drums”‚ Okara expresses his feelings and thoughts of a primitive society in contrast to a western society. Being an African himself‚ and having studied in a western society‚ the poem reflects the confusion in his emotions as well as the loss of self-identity. The title of the poem itself‚ “Piano and Drums” displays a sense of dissimilarity and contrast as the instruments are so unalike in terms of sophistication.

    "Fences" and "The Piano Lesson" are two extraordinary works created by August Wilson. Throughout these two plays there is a constant struggle while at the same time these stories revolve around a similar theme or symbol. In "Fences"‚ the idea of building the "fence" is very similar to the "piano" in "The Piano Lesson". A major similarity between “The Piano Lesson” and “Fences” is that both plays stick primarily to the same setting.  A lot of each play’s meaning has a lot to do with its setting.  In
