Answer:

Defiance.

Explanation:

The short poem "Still Here" by Langston Hughes is an open declaration of the perseverance of the speaker in not giving up. He is declaring his fighting spirit boldly, not scared of anything that comes his way.

The speaker says that even though he may "<em>have been scared and battered</em>", his hopes all scattered by the wind, "<em>Snow has friz’ me, Sun has baked me, Looks like between ‘em they done Tried to make me Stop laughin</em>," he will not give up. He boldly and openly declares "(he's) <em>still here</em>". He refuses to be put down by anything, and will persevere and be brave. He is capable of enduring whatever may come his way. his defiance in not allowing to be put under any pressure shows his passion to fight and be brave. He will not give up no matter  how heavy or strong the situation may be.
