<span>It means the same thing as "dead as a doornail" completely dead. Dumplings aren't alive so they are "dead". So "dead as a dumpling" means to be completely dead, not alive in the slightest. </span>

To be " dead as a dumpling" means that you are very dead. It's an expression that you use to describe something or someone that you know for sure is dead.

Part B Elaborate on the central idea about social classes that Countee Cullen depicts in his poem "For a Lady I Know." Provide t
Serjik [45]

Answer:

In his poem "For a Lady I Know," Countee Cullen depicts the clash between the upper and lower classes of society. The poem is assumed to be about upper-class white Americans who treat African Americans poorly. He points out the audacity of the upper class to presume that African Americans would continue to wait on them forever, even after death:

She even thinks that up in heaven

Her class lies late and snores

While poor black cherubs rise at seven

To do celestial chores.

This poem suggests that white Americans don’t want to help improve the lifestyle of poor African Americans but are comfortable with the minority races serving them forever.

From Plato :)
