Read the excerpt from Billy Collins’s “Man Listening to Disc.” And if any of you are curious about where this aggregation, this

whole battery-powered crew, is headed, let us just say that the real center of the universe, the only true point of view, is full of the hope that he, the hub of the cosmos with his hair blown sideways, will eventually make it all the way downtown. What message does Collins convey in this excerpt?

<span>In this portion of the poem, “Man Listening to Disc,” Collins is referencing how the narrator is so entwined with the music being listened to through earphones that the person and the band being listened to can be considered one unit.  One possible interpretation of these lines is the message that music has such a unique ability to be uplifting and build confidence that one could consider himself or herself the proverbial center of the universe.</span>
