Sonnet 29

I think sonnet 29 is very depressing imaging like without your mother isn't so sad expecially when you 8 month. A guy who was reading a poem from shakespeare made him more joyful and stop thinking about the negative. How often he recites the poems. Shakespeares poem made him calm as he said and it help him concentrate. However he said that it meant everything to him in the video you can tell that when tears ran down his eye you can tell that it was really deep and meanful to him. I can compare this to other people because kids that doesn't have that much feelings or that much attention majority of them have some near or dear to them to impress there self and show more confident along with dignity. So a guy like him is brave but has alot in the mind but if poems works then that must be a good thing

"Still I Rise" by Maya Angelou

I think that the theme is being confident and saying what was inside her heart and she just need to take the feelings out. You can tell this by her explaining about her deep feeling about this guy and it seem like he is treating her badly. I can connect this other people and books because people have feelings and and there friendship or love is not going the right way because people tell there partner how they feel about them because the way they act. They tear out there emotions away and the point is why they don't break up if you want to "rise'' then why they love alone, and look forward for there and live it and rise. Moreover I think Maya should keep on to what she doing in her relationship. Her poem is deep and understandable. And her relationship won't be an abomination. She should just worship her self and RISE up!

To his Coy Histress

"My vegetable love grow vaster than empire" is an example of how he is exaggeration of how he loves her so much. And also how he knows that he's will continue to be strong. I can connect this to other boys and girls because the only way the want to continued there love and there relationship is by keeping secret and never bringing each other down. Love is a strong extreme and powerful and what really matter is staying together and hold hands forever.

give me attention

why you throw food on the floor
when there is me right next to you
When I am wondering when they going to pick me up
and throw me in the dump
why people don't care about there environment
why they can't give me enough attention
I'm over here for a good reason
to stop messing our communities
let's leave our country clean
so I can get some attention
So the truck can pick me up
and throw the pick up away
So give me attention!

I know why a cage bird sings

I think this mood about this poem is depression and not fair because in this poem it compares two birds to two different humans. One of this bird is free probably because it compares that bird to a white person because back then white people were FREE and they had the life to do anything and had the chance to do anything. Life for them was easy. The second bird is compare to a black person I say this because during the days [slavery] black people didn't have the chance to do what they [wanted] to do and there slave owners would tell them do things and do it right away and if they don't do it they suffer consequences such as living behind bars or getting weeped for some silly reason. And what's complicated is that they don't know how to read and write but god gave them strength and dignity and a great passion . I know why a cage bird sing!

Bronxs Masquerade

There are two girls who were abused in there lives and the older one was abused more through out her live. So when the younger one and her boyfriend was making love,she realized that she doesn't need to be disrespected in her life. And realized that she deserve better more than her sister.I can connect this to a abusive women because they always going through so much difficulties and horror and they trying to find a way to take there self out of it and that fact that it is so difficult to think of that day they were raped or hurt or abused.

Poetry Responce by Bronxs Masquerade

Tyrone talks about how his daddy died and how he talks about his life or around his hometown and the kids in the class neighborhood.I think the character in this poetry connect this to the other poems like California Love because they both talk about how the situation affect there lives and the side the affect of violence in there hometown. I can infer that is a bad neighborhood because shooting people is a bad crime to do. No one to live in a place like that.

Stopping by the woods

The mood that this created was boring dark and deep I say this because in the poem he wants to take a break with his horse but he need to to continue and he has so much pressure in him and he has so much in mind to path threw and he is determine because if that someone else they would just take a break and won't care about the other issues they are going threw. The reason why he had put miles to go before I sleep,miles to go before I sleep because he want to prove to people that he is very in the mood of disappointment and need the time to go through all the issue and I can infer that he needs a lot of help.

Negro

I would describe this person as strong and powerful because they show us that they are black and they are part of Africa and no matter how much they been through that person would carry it's sparrow song from Africa to Georgia. So you ca tell that all through out his slavery life he has something part of him safe and clean. I could connect to other people from world wide because people today are very different from one anther and have really bad issue through out life bad just one thing that makes them feel special and can get luck out of it. I think the main or the theme for this can be you can hurt as bad you cannot take my soul or dignity. I say this because this person was a slave and had one thing that had traveled with him which was was sorrow song. That person knows that they are black and part of Africa.
