Not really a poem.. just something i feel. I like it.
I cannot sleep, i never sleep.

I’m stepping out, don’t mess about.
Don’t tell me to be patient.
I’ve been wedded, enslaved, white washed, and saved,
But now, I’m liberated.
I’ve been patted, and moulded, and shaped, and scolded
And I learned real fast how to please ‘em,
I ‘Yessir’ed, and ‘No Ma’am’ed,
I was cursed and...

Would not take the garbage out!
She'd scour the pots and scrape the pans,
Candy the yams and spice the hams,
And though her daddy would scream and shout,
She simply would not take the garbage out.
And so it piled up to the ceilings:
Coffee grounds, potato peelings...
Can someone give me a thorough analysis of stanza 8. Who is the narrator referring to, talk about sentence structure and what are the connections to the other parts of the poem?

Pads clash and helmets collide
As coaches yell with pride
Interceptions and fumbles
Makes the defense rumble
Fans yell with high acclaim

I think it's about a man reminiscing about his days in the army from looking at his uniform, remembering old memories.

Crouched upon the roof up there,
the wind blowing bloody fog through his hair,
with metal swords sounding with pride,

…slipping down
my

that'll catch you all at
