Read the excerpt from Midsummer by Derek Walcott.
Based on the excerpt, what is the speaker's perspective
on the riot?
With the stampeding hiss and scurry of green lemmings,
midsummer's leaves race to extinction like the roar
of a Brixton riot tunneled by water hoses;
they seethe toward autumn's fire-it is in their nature,
being men as well as leaves, to die for the sun.
The speaker thinks that the riot was a mistake.
The speaker thinks that the riot was somewhat
inevitable.
The speaker thinks that the riot should have happened
in the fall
The speaker thinks that the riot was entirely preventable.
