So you didn't put any statements...but here's what it's about.

"The Gift of the Magi" is a short story, written by O. Henry, about a young married couple and how they deal with the challenge of buying secret Christmas gifts for each other with very little money

Yeah you didn't put any statements, but if I were to guess, I would think his purpose in writing it would be to show that money isn't what matters in life. What matters in life is family and love for your fellow man.

How does H.T Johnson use sarcasm in his poem " The Black Mans Burden"?
boyakko [2]
Johnson uses sarcasm in this poem as he expresses the opposite of what he means. When he says "pile on the Black Man's Burden", and gives examples of how people can make black men more miserable than they already are ("his wail with laughter drown"), he is using sarcasm. He clearly does not want people to pile on this burden and make black men's lives harder, but he is saying that people should do it to show them how ridiculous it sounds and to point out that people are already doing that.
