Musee Des Beau Arts Pre writing

 the subject of this poem is human indifference he saw the painting  by  breughel  landscape with t he fall icarus when he visited  the art museum he then began to think about human suffering and no one cares "the old masters" elderly who are suffering and no cares about them. They have nothing to do but wait for a birth of maybe a grand child to give them some life  because everyone goes about their business even the dogs and horses .he then uses Brueghel's iscarus as an example you have this disaster happening of a child falling out of the sky and how the people closest to the fall do nothing to help you have a man ploughing he may have heard the splash,the forsake cry, but it was not important to him so he ignored it. he uses the line white legs disappearing into the green water, and the ship that was sailing had to see him falling out of the sky but again kept right on sailing like it was no big deal. the tone he uses in the poem is serious no one in this poem smiles or is happy

this 2 stanza poem starts out saying how apathy towards life doesn't change even in the most horrible of circumstances as a boy falling out of the sky if it does not concern one personally then there is no interest what happens to others
