Sola Owonibi successfully used oxymoron and antithesis to paint the picture of hardship and polarization between the extremely rich and the extremely impoverished; for instance line 5 "major fragments of the globe" major fragment is oxymoronic, while fragments of the globe is antithesis. Line 6 day and night are also antithetical. You will notice that almost every line has a visible contrasting element or a shade of it. The author also declares that theywere the "carriers of the burdens" of the oppressors, the unfed carrying the burden of the well fed. The contrasting images painted by the author with the assistance of oxymoron and antithesis have graphically expressed the author's mind.
