D. He was ignored by people who failed to accept  him.

Answer:

The correct answer is option O C. He was trapped in an existence that was  harmful.

Explanation:

This question reffers to the poem "From Trauma to Transformation" by Luis J. Rodriguez.

n these two words that appear at the beginning of the poem, we can see how the author describes a life that was hurting him.

To understand it better, let's look at the following quote:

The calling came to me while I languished

in my room, while I whittled away my youth

in jail cells and damp neighborhood fields.

It brought me to life, out of captivity,

in a street-scarred and tattooed place

I called body.

Given this information, we can say that the correct answer is option C.
