This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question

Read Identity, by Julio Noboa

How does the speaker’s description of flowers develop the meaning of the poem?

The speaker views the existence of flowers as more limited than the life of a weed.  

The speaker views the existence of flowers as more free than the life of a weed.

The speaker views the existence of flowers as an appreciation to humans.

The speaker views the existence of flowers as an inconvenience to humans.

Answer: The speaker views the existence of flowers as more limited than the life of a weed.  

Explanation:

As the title indicates, identity is the main theme of this poem, as well as the freedom of maintaining one´s individuality.

Polanco presents the life of flowers as limited in the sense that they are bound to a pot that restrains them, and they grow surrounded by other identical flowers. This could be a metaphor about those who obey the commands of a constraining society.

Unlike flowers, a weed, although ugly and foul-smelling, grows free, such as a person who preserves individual freedoms.

aleksley [76]
Among the sentences in the excerpt from Leo Tolstoy's The Death of Ivan Ilyich, I think the statement that shows that Ivan Ilyich has realized the hypocrisy of his earlier life is: "Ivan Ilyich knows quite well and definitely that all this is nonsense and pure deception, but when the doctor, getting down on his knee, leans over him, putting his ear first higher then lower, and performs various gymnastic movements over him with a significant expression on his face, Ivan Ilyich submits to it all as he used to submit to the speeches of the lawyers, though he knew very well that they were all lying and why they were lying." This is because in his earlier life before he was terminally ill, he too also submitted to the lawyers in order to work his way up on the social ladder.
