    In Broken Images

    The poem contrasts two individuals, one who thinks in "clear images" and trusts their understanding versus one who thinks in "broken images" and questions their understanding. The one with broken images is described as becoming sharp through mistrust and questioning, while the one with clear images becomes dull by always trusting. The poem seems to value the approach of the one with broken images who questions and has a new understanding through their confusion.

    MHR001 Managing Workplace Relations

    In Broken Images
    by Robert Graves (An English poet, 1895-1985)

    He is quick, thinking in clear images;


    I am slow, thinking in broken images.

    He becomes dull, trusting to his clear images;


    I become sharp, mistrusting my broken images.

    Trusting his images, he assumes their relevance;


    Mistrusting my images, I question their relevance.

    Assuming their relevance, he assumes the fact;


    Questioning their relevance, I question the fact.

    When the fact fails him, he questions his senses;


    When the fact fails me, I approve my senses.

    He continues quick and dull in his clear images;


    I continue slow and sharp in my broken images.

    He in a new confusion of his understanding;


    I in a new understanding of my confusion.
    Observation:
    The poem seems to value confusion, mistrust, the act of questioning i.e., 'the broken images'
    as opposed to trusting, understanding, not questioning i.e., 'the clear images'.

    Question:
    1. Which of these two images has better resemblance with
    entrepreneurial work? Why?
