Please write a 300-word paragraph about the poem below. Remember to focus on both content and form (literary elements).

You may use your notes from class. You will be graded on your use of literary terms; eliciting certain words and phrases from the poem and explaining them; language, grammar and spelling.

How does Grace Nichols use the personal lyric to engage with questions of identity, gender, and race in Wherever I Hang?
Wherever I Hang
I leave me people, me land, me home
For reasons I not too sure
I forsake de sun
And de humming -bird splendour
Had big rats in de floorboard
So I pick up me new -world -self
And come to this place call England
At first I feeling like I in a dream
De misty greyness
I touching the walls to see if they real
They solid to de seam
And de people pouring from de underground system
Like beans
And when I look up to de sky
I see Lord Nelson high too high to lie
And is so I sending home photos of myself
Among de pigeons and de snow
And is so I warding off de cold
And is so, little by little
I begin to change my calypso ways
Never visiting nobody
Before giving them clear warning
And waiting me turn in queue
Now, after all this time
I get accustom to de English life
But I still miss back -home side
To tell you de truth
I dont know really where I belaang
Yes, divided to de ocean
Divided to the bone
Wherever I hang me knickers thats my home.
