Answer is C. Wrtiers use characters to reveal a theme more often in a play than in a poem.
In plays, there are many tools that authors dispose to express theme. The easiest way to do it is through the use of characterization, in which the author can convey his message. On the other hand, poets employ poetic devices and elements like imagery and symbolism to express themes in their poetry.
This question is about the poem “One Today” by Richard Blanco.
Answer and Explanation:
1. The poem's details present Americans as workers from the most different sectors, from those who work in professions that we recognize as well as those who build bridges, who make newspapers, who clean tables, among other less admired service workers, but still essential for the country. With that, the poet showed that each American is important in a unique and unique way.
2. In addition to joint cooperation between individuals, the poet recognizes the ability to generate connections, among Americans, through mourning. This can be seen when he refers to the armed massacres that took place in schools and caused the death of many children. The mourning of the children's families establishes a connection with the whole country, which is also in mourning.
