Explanation:
In <em>Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry</em> we follow the story of the Logan family through the lives of all of its members. The abuse on a racial basis that is described in the given excerpt was just one of the minor discomforts that African Americans experienced, or in this case - the Logan family. From being beaten, falsely accused of doing something they did not do, to not being served in a store or getting second-hand books from white schools that were too old and useless<em>. </em>So, in this novel, we have a very detailed and realistic description of the everyday life of average African Americans and how they coped with it.
Answer:
Its called The Ancient Evil:
The winter winds dance upon the ice-capped plains
as a ballerina dances across the stage, free just as the wind
the winter winds ice-cold figures danced but in vain
for just as joy flowed through their actions, an evil was left behind.
An evil that devours the ground upon the winds passing.
Frigid winter wind oblivious to the wreckage left in its wake
yet even the simple remnants; left behind is not wanting
the frozen land beholding crystals of ice upon the icy plains.
The ancient evil abhors the honest winter wind,
with it comes the scorching warmth, the killer of ice, and all that is frozen
the ancient evil holds the winter dancers within its blistering grasp
and obliterates it with absolute detest.
With the ancient evil comes the gentle caresses of the sun and the reviving rain; Spring has arrived and with it draws near the hope of another year.
