How was the image of NZ created? (The Old Place)
The way that the poet describes the fence posts are 'drunk' shows that no one has been to the house and no one can be bothered to repair the fence posts. It gives you the image that they are leaning over just like a drunk person when they are walking they cannot balance themselves or keep themselves up right.
