Read the following lines from “Fable for When There’s No Way Out”:

“Despair tempts him / to just go limp.”

What is the best interpretation of these lines?
The chick is angry at how difficult it is to break free from his shell.
The chick is so tired he is tempted to rest for just a little while.
The struggle to break free from the shell is exhausting, but the chick must go on.
The struggle to live seems so hopeless that the chick considers giving up.

D?

I agree.
