Juliet
My love Romeo has been banished from Verona and I'd rather be dead than to be without out him. I wish he was not banished. I know how he feels to not be with me. My father wants me to marry Prince Paris, but I refuse to do so. Now father is extremely mad at me, because I disobeyed him, and my parents both tell me that either I marry Paris or I will be put out on the streets. I have a really big decision to make but I know for a fact that I'd rather stay with my love than marry someone I dislike.......

Dunbar’s Sympathy poem.
The poet of the poem Sympathy is Paul Laurence Dunbar. He was a son of slave, and Dunbar explored the
themes of slavery and life in the South. The subject of the poem is a caged bird. The repeated words and phrases are I know why; caged bird; first.The structure of the poem is 3 stanzas with 7 lines per stanza. The rhyme scheme is abaabcc. What I liked about the poem is that it is easy to read it gives me a lot of emotions.What the poet is saying is that he seems to be comparing a caged bird to a human slave
The mood of the poem is sad but angry. He repeat the phrase “I know why the caged bird” because It is easy to read. He wants the reader to know that he too has felt this way. The word alas makes me think that he was a caged bird too. He is getting angrier because he imagine it more violent. He flings the prayer upward to heaven, because he knows it probably won't get there. When I read this poem at first I was confused, then sadness then sympathy, because I figured out that bird was a metaphor for slaves, it was sad to think about how they wanted to get away but couldn‟t.
