The Cockroach by Kevin Halligan

Topic - The Cockroach by Kevin Halligan
(First PEEP)

Firstly, Halligan has used a lot of time phrases to create an image of a journey of life from birth to death. These constant uses of time phrases also represent the continuous change of perceptions in a human mind deepening into the dilemma of a human mind and soul helping to lay parallels with the poet and the cockroach. The poet has used ‘at first’ to create an image of a newborn baby starting to walk onto the path of life available to him. Halligan then uses ‘but soon’ to depict the teenage years of a human and the increase of maturity of the cockroach. The use of the phrase ‘but’ is very striking here because it foreshadows the fact that there might be a change in perceptions of the cockroach or the poet. Indeed, The poet becomes greedier and supposedly runs behind the dirty attachments in life, not realizing that this is the beginning of his dilemma. The poet then uses the phrase ‘after a while’ to depict the image of an adult. Here, it is quite humorous to find that even after being at the peak of it’s maturity, the cockroach does not know where to go and is still confused with the fact of the difference between what it has achieved and what it yet has to achieve. The intelligent use of time phrases, give jerks to the poem symbolizing the fact that life is not a very smooth journey and there will be a lot of obstacles in your way, so instead of avoiding the obstacles you will have to face them. Thus, laying parallels between the cockroach and the poet.
