In "life is fine" the poet is showing a man who tries to die in various possible ways, until he gives up and decides to live.

In "The Weary Blues" we can, first, infer that the poem portrays the existence of artistic freedom.

"The black Mans Talks of Reaping" shows the lack of freedom in an impactful way, because it reports the thought of a black slave in relation to the suffering life he had in the southern farms.

Answer 2

Answer and Explanation:

In "life is fine" the poet is showing a man who tries to die in various possible ways, until he gives up and decides to live, because that's what life is made for. In this poem, we can perceive the concept of freedom of choice, because in the midst of the dying voice, the speaker of the poem was not judged, or prevented, from choosing to change his mind about death, because the speaker had the freedom to judge what he wanted do with yourself.

In "The Weary Blues" we can, first, infer that the poem portrays the existence of artistic freedom, since it shows us a black musician who sings a sad song, but that he had the freedom to compose. However, the poem shows how the concept of freedom is false for blacks, since the population keeps them limited, victims and a strong segregation.

"The black Mans Talks of Reaping" shows the lack of freedom in an impactful way, because it reports the thought of a black slave in relation to the suffering life he had in the southern farms. The poem shows how the slaves produced and did not have access to grains, they were the producers of immense lands, but they had no naa, not even freedom.
