Expiain the 2nd stanza of the poem carpet weavers morocco by carol rumens?

They watch their flickering knots like television As the garden of Islam grows, the bench will be raised. Then they will lace the dark-rose veins of the tree-tops. I think this stanza continues with the first stanza in painting a very pleasant picture of the children despite their obvious poverty. The children, in the carpet-weaving process, watch the "flickering knots" like watching "television". The term "television" is very incongruous with the central issue of poverty since it lies at the other end of the social spectrum, but it does seem to conceal the situation they are in. Then the second line depicts the process of the carpet-weaving itself where the threads are knotted together to produce the final product - but it is described in a rather fantastical and surreal manner. It has a life-like quality as the "garden of Islam grows" (rather than the motif on the carpet) and the children "lace" the "dark-rose veins of the tree-tops" together (rather than the end-threads of the carpet). The whole carpet-weaving process presents itself as a creative and imaginative process for the children, and the use of "garden of Islam" which is the Islamic concept of paradise seems to provide the children with an alternate and better world. Of course all this ends in the next stanza, where reality hits us again - the carpet-weaving is business and not pleasure. The children's handiwork possesses no aesthetic or creative value whatsoever, but it purely meant to be sold.
