Poetry Analysis: Second Attempt Crossing , I Hear America Singing , Harlem
Second attempt crossing , I Hear America singing , Harlem
A reader might come across many similarities when they read two or more poems at a time. So is the case in the analysis of the three poems Second attemt crossing , I hear America singing and Harlem . While all the three poems differ from each other the only similarity is that the speakers use the reference of America while talking about their experiences.
Zamora in his poem Second attempt crossing shares his experience of coming to America and gives a tribute to Chino which is evident from the first line For Chino (Zamora,1). The speaker uses the word Chino three times to make readers understand the importance of the person who saved him. Moreover, the arrangement of the phrases cannot be considered proper by the way it looks while reading. On the other hand Whitman in his poem I hear America singing talks about the freedom that the American workers whowork day and night to make a living are celebrating. The speaker uses the word Singing eleven times which depicts how much the working people are enjoying while they work. However the structure of the poem is very irregular. Likewise Hughes in his short poem Harlem use such phrases that catch the attention of the reader, yet the structure of the poem is very complex and takes time for one to understand the vision of the speaker.
Zamora uses a realistic and serious tone in his poem. He describes one of the event where he and chino were on gunpoint and chino saved his life by protecting him. It was then the gun ready to press its index&your pushed me under your chest (Zamora). One could feel the emotion of the speaker as he narrates these lines. While Whitman uses tone of happiness and excitement. The poem starts with a cheerful statement I hear America singing (Whitman) it gives a hint to the readers about the tone that will remain throughout the poem. Hughes poem brings a strong/disturbing image to the readers mind as they start reading it. For instance fester like a sore&stink like rotten meat& (Hughes) can make the reader rethink their dreams and what if they are unable to achieve them.
Zamora did not make good use of the figurative language in his poem. We could just see imagery being used in between the poem. While Whitman in his poem used allitration very often. For instance the carpenter singing&the boatman singing&the shoemaker singing& . Hughes makes a very strong use of simile and metaphor in his poem while comparing the dream to different objects which forces the readers to imagine what exactly the speaker is trying to convey.
