, Touloper
Die Spreker

● ‘n Tiener
● Eerste persoon
● Iemand wat op ‘n tou loop


Reëlverklarings

● Reël 1
the storms rage again in our house today
Daar is groot onrus/konflik in die huis, daar word baie baklei
Waarskynlik deur die spreker se ouers
‘Weer’ beteken dit dikwels/ herhaaldelik gebeur often/repeatedly
● Reël 2
but full of courage/nerve I climb on the tightrope
Baie dapper, vol moed pak die spreker die balanseertoertjie aan balancing act
“Maar’ bewys ‘n verandering in toon
'But' proves a change in tone
Verkeerde woordorde: dit beklementoon ‘vol durf’
Bewys dat hy het moed
● Reël 3
inch by inch I shuffle forwards
Hy beweeg baie versigtig vorentoe terwyl hy sy oë op die tou gerig hou
Hy begin stadig want hy is onseker
● Reël 4
past the reproach winds of
Sy ouers verwyt mekaar die hele tyd en die stormwind dreig om hom van die tou
af te waai
‘Verwyt-winde’ beteken die konflik by die huis
Hy wil nie betrokke raak nie
● Reël 5-7
did you again
I told you so
What did you do?
Skuinsgedruk wys dit is direkte rede
Net halwesinne
Die ouers slinger oor en weer verwyte na mekaar en blameer mekaar vir wat
verkeerd is in hul verhouding
● Reël 8
panicking eyes look at me from way down below
Die ouers is skynbaar bewus van die effek van hul onmin op die kind maar hulle is
so behep met hulleself dat hulle nie aandag daaraan skenk nie
● Reël 9
far removed from my spotlight- balancing act

, Hulle bekommer hulle skynbaar meer oor hul eie kwessies as oor die kind se
moedige poging om hulle aandag op hom te vestig
● Reël 10-11
my tightrope webs between
walls and doorknobs
Die spreker moet sy strategie baie fyn beplan om uit hierdie storm te ontsnap en
nie daarin vasgevang te word nie
● Reël 12
family photos and calendars
Dinge wat herinneringe terugbring
Dalk tel hy nie dae af om weg te kom uit sy onhoudbare situasie
● Reël 13
flashing tv images and internet connections
Die een ouer kyk moontlik TV terwyl die ander een voor die rekenaar vasgevang is
Dis ‘n moontlike rede vir die gebrek aan kommunikasie tussen hulle of dis hulle
manier van ontsnap uit ‘n ongelukkige huwelik

Reëls 12 en 13 dui ook ‘n lang tydsverloop aan (van familiefoto’s en kalenders tot
moderne tegnologie)
Hierdie onmin hou dus al jare lank aan
Lines 12 and 13 also indicate a long passage of time (from family photos and
calendars to modern technology) So this feud has been going on for years
● Reël 14
up to the garden gate
Die tuinhek dui moontlik die spreker se poort na vryheid aan o Die spreker se
ontsnaproete strek moontlik van die deurhandvatsel in die huis tot by die
tuinhekkie
● Reël 15
I am high above the ground
Solank hy bo die grond beweeg, hoef hy nie deel te wees van die ongelukkige
gebeure wat op die grond plaasvind nie
● Reël 16-18
away from everything except the winds
but I don’t think about it
I keep my eye on the tightrope
Geleidelik vervaag die bekende dinge wat hom omring, behalwe die stemme van
die verwytende ouers in die agtergrond, maar hy probeer hom daarvan afsluit deur
op sy balanseertoertjie te fokus
● Reël 19
I balance my life
Hy probeer balans in sy lewe bring sodat hy nie net op die negatiewe dinge
konsentreer nie
● Reël 20
and foot by foot I shift forward
Die balanseertoertjie is ‘n tydowende proses: voetjies het intussen voete geword
maar steeds is dit ‘n langsame proses om aan sy ongelukkige omstandighede
Hy gaan meer vinnig want hy is nie nog onseker nie
● Reël 21
through the storm
