Compare and contrast the ways In which Grace Nichols represents The Ess

Compargon and contrast the ways In which Grace Nichols represents The stem turn of striverry in her poems I attack back and wampumpeag cane.The two poems written by Grace Nichols are similar because both ofthem are roughly slavery. But they are very different in some ways likeI coming back is about initiateting revenge and scratch line cane is about thesuffering of slaves. The styles of the poems are different from eachother. This essay will try to explore these poems similarities anddifferences.The two poems content is different but their lawsuit is the same.The subject is about slavery but they are written in different ways.I coming back is about a slave charr who wants to take revenge onher master while she is financial support and, when she Is dead by the help ofher spirit or ghost. She wants to terrorise her master while she isliving and haunt him with her spirit or ghost when she is dead. She isshown as a powerful figure that wants to take revenge on her masterfor trea ting her as a slave and an animal. She is very threateningagainst her master this is shown when she saysBone in yuh throatAnd laugh in yuh skullI coming back. (L 17-19)Only this sentence shows how threatening the poems could be. She hasused some(prenominal) threatening phrases another one could beBall-a-fireA skinless higueI coming back. (L 11-13)She is very repetitive on saying I coming back. This could mean sheis penetrating on getting revenge.Sugar cane describes the slave as a worn harmless person. Also inher poem she describes the kind of diseases the slave get and how. Shealso describes the slave as a person who cant control his life and iscontrolled by the master. In sugar cane the slave is shown as a weakpe... ...ole.Some Creole expressions are vivid and conciseand have no equivalent English.Grace Nichols said this in her introduction. She means that Creole isused for fierce things that is why it is more obvious in I comingback then sugar cane. I coming back is more fie rce than sugarcane that is why it is more obvious in I coming back.ConclusionThe poem has many differences and similarities although the samewriter writes them. I think they are more differences thansimilarities. I think I coming is more alive and vivid of the two.Sugar cane is more descriptive but sad. I coming back is morerevengeful and violent. I coming back is more repetitive and haslimited number of lines per stanza and it uses more Creole. Sugarcane has more avatar and it uses folklore characters. Thecontents of the poems are different.
