Lamov fights with the woman he wants to marry before he can make his proposal, fights he is proposing and fights again after she agrees to marry him. They tend to fight whenever the converse to one another, and when this alarms her father at first, he decides that let them fight to one another. Ultimately, the father believes their last fight is actually the beginning of a happy family, though it is doubtful if the couple can conflict every time and attain anything like bliss.

“ A supermarket in California” by Alan Ginsberg.
Allen Ginsberg describes his fanciful night walk to a supermarket In California were he imagine he sees Whit man (a 19th century poet) and one of his idol. As Ginsberg discerns the artificial and mass produced state of the post modern supermarket, he muses that Whitman might think this new era of people who are so removed from the nature. He uses symbolism to express his dejection on mass produced modern consumerist culture (Group, p. 122).
On the opening lines of the poem advance the aforesaid journal – like quality and also presents the central crucial point of the poem at large. The first line explicitly expresses a tone of wistfulness or even sorrow. The evocation of Whitman‘ s name is an obvious symbol of optimism or idealism. Because of the wide-ranging qualities of Whitman’s own writings, the logic of idealism is destined to expand to politics, philosophy as and poetry. The opening line bring about the poem’s central anxiety by contrasting idealism with cynical reality. The tone is recognized even before the fist line due to the radiant title which evokes both the hopeful westward expansion of American history- California and the sensible demand of the American cultural and political systems to sufficiently provide for the African people- the supermarket. It is significant to recognize that through the poem, Ginsberg aims the symbolic character of the poem’s setting of a supermarket to plunk for much more than physical food (Group, p. 455).
