Read the excerpt from “The Caged Bird.” But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing. What is the figurative meaning of the excerpt? The bird’s cage has been placed so that it overlooks a cemetery. The bird’s cage is so small that it cramps his wings and feet. The caged bird has had his hope destroyed. The caged bird is thinking very serious thoughts.

the author is intending to draw attention to the plight of refugees, editorial and biography support this. both workpieces make the reader empathize with enrique as well as with the other young migrants from central america. the writer, however, is using a different approach to each text.

the editorial includes strong words to persuade readers. he is trying hard to convince readers in the us to change its refugee approach.

the biography relies on narrative techniques and figurative language which the writer uses wisely in the setting, characterization, and personification to educate readers on the topic.

i believe the answer is d : )

what are you asking? this is gibberish.
