thats wrong thanks dude
this is the most pitful conversation i ever saw
It’s B all the other ones don’t make sense.
It’s obviously not the main idea

It's going to be B. Why? Say the poem. Say it like you are performing it. When you say the word "and" It adds emphasis. Hence, creating a stronger rhythm. The word and does NOT give important details. Nor provides a purpose, or establishes the main idea. In conclusion, it's going to be B
