castortr0y [4]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Factual detail: The folks were full of misery, then. Got sick with the up and down of the sea.

Fictional detail: The ones that could fly shed their wings. They couldn't take their wings across the water on the slave ships.

From the passage, we can one out that it consist of details which are factual and which aren't true. The line, '"The ones that could fly shed their wings. They couldn't take their wings across the water on the slave ships" is a fictional one mainly because in reality, people cannot really fly.

Another detail from the passage which says 'The folks were full of misery, then. Got sick with the up and down of the sea' is a factual detail. This is because folks where taken from their home on ships, and there is a likelyhood of sea sickness for many people who travel on ship.

beks73 [17]

Character is what you are in the dark." Dwight Lyman Moody, in this very witty quotation of his, states we act and think differently when we are "in the dark", that is, when the spotlight is not on us and everyone can see us and consequently judge us. When reading, we tend to be sympathetic to some characters and their dilemmas. By being so, we are saying to ourselves that we agree with those characters' acts and choices, even if they are morally questionable if we have common sense in mind.

What is the structure of the poem? almost perfect but not quite shel silverstein
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

In poetry, a stanza is a grouped set of lines within a poem, usually set off from others by a blank line or indentation. Stanzas can have regular rhyme and metrical schemes, though stanzas are not strictly required to have either. There are many unique forms of stanzas. Some stanzaic forms are simple, such as four-line quatrains. Other forms are more complex, such as the Spenserian stanza. Fixed verse poems, such as sestinas, can be defined by the number and form of their stanzas. The term stanza is similar to strophe, though strophe sometimes refers to an irregular set of lines, as opposed to regular, rhymed stanzas. In fact, poetry is a form of text that follows a meter and rhythm, with each line and syllable. It is further subdivided into different genres, such an epic poem, narrative, romantic, dramatic, and lyric. Among major structural elements used in poetry are the line, the stanza or verse paragraph, and larger combinations of stanzas or lines such as cantos. Also sometimes used are broader visual presentations of words and calligraphy. Poetry structure is the form in which a poem is written. Examples include blank verse, end rhyme, and named structures, such as sonnets, sestinas, haikus, balads, villanelles, and many others. The structure of a poem influences the way it is read by giving the words a certain rhythm and flow, often influencing the mood or tone of the poem, as well.
