Answer:

But in a general sense, the way I understand this is that "bulldozing" implies hurting or overwhehming the butcher, grocer, etc, by being so cheap (parsimonious) and that that requires haggling with them to save money and makes the relationships with them overly involved, close, and contentious.

Answer:

The speaker in Audre Lorde’s poem "Hanging Fire" seems to be frustrated and angry with the world around her.

Explanation:

The speaker of the poem "Hanging Fire" by Audre Lorde is a girl of fourteen who seems to have lots of trouble being happy, while her mother is "in the bedroom with the door closed". She seems to be frustrated and angry with the world around her, complaining that she "should have been on the Math Team" instead of the other boy, or about her not having anything suitable to wear, or even questioning if she "will live long enough to grow up" while her mother continues to be in the bedroom. It seems like she is missing an adult guidance and she is desperate for it, but then the mother couldn't care less, staying "in the bedroom with the door closed."

Answer:
