AANDEELHOUER
ALTA MARINCOWITZ
, WAAROOR GAAN DIE GEDIG
WHAT IS THE POEM ABOUT
Die gedig begin met ‘n onderwyser wat ‘n vraag aan die tiener seun vra of hy ook in die finansiële
wêreld gaan werk soos die seun se pa.
Die seun antwoord en sê hy gaan definitief nie sy pa volg nie. Hy stel belang in sport (krieket),
spiere (sy voorkoms) en meisies.
Die gedig eindig met die seun wat vra wie gee in elk geval (anyway) om oor wat die prys
van mielies en koring is.
The poem starts with a grownup (probably a teacher) asking a student if he is going to
follow in his father’s footsteps and go into business. The student responds by saying he
is definitely not going into business and rather wants to focus on cricket, building his
muscles and girls. He ends by asking who cares about the price of mielies and wheat.
The irony is that he uses many of the “business world” terms that he dislikes too
much.
, IN A NUTSHELL
• The poem starts with a grownup (probably a teacher) asking a student if he is
going to follow in his father’s footsteps and go into business.
• The student responds by saying he is definitely not going into business and rather
wants to focus on cricket, building his muscles and girls.
• He ends by asking who cares about the price of mielies and wheat.
• The irony is that he uses many of the “business world” terms that he dislikes to
much + he dislikes the financial word his father works in but this is this exact financial
world that he dislikes that provides his dad and him with money to live this care-free life.
