Select the correct answer. How did Paul Laurence Dunbar depart from traditional poetry in "We Wear the Mask"? A. by using formal
language B. by including biblical allusion C. by employing an unusual rhyme scheme D. by discussing individual identity E. by adhering to strict grammar norms
<em>We Wear the Mask</em> is a frequently anthologized poem that demonstrates Dunbar getting it done in his standard English poems. It is composed generally in severe versifying tetrameter lines with a dull rhyme design, yet Dunbar interferes with this normal beat in the last lines of the second and third stanzas to convey the shocking calming explanation, "We wear the mask."
The sentence "My friends and I lazed around all morning" has a negative connotation to it since "laze" implies laziness. However, "My friends and I relaxed all morning" means the same without the negative connotation.
