IN Pause ycle 3 Mid-Unit Assessment / 1 of 16 Which of the following identifies the theme of the poem? "Identity" by Julio Noboa O A. People often fear those who choose not to conform to the majority. Let them be as flowers, always watered, fed, guarded, admired, but harnessed to a pot of dirt. O B. It is much easier to be true to yourself than to conform to what others expect I'd rather be a tall, ugly weed, clinging on cliffs, like an eagle wind-wavering above high, jagged rocks. Being different can be isolating, but it leads to true the independence and happiness. D. People who must overcome difficult circumstances are often stronger. To have broken through the surface of stone, to live, to feel exposed to the madness of the vast, eternal sky. To be swayed by the breezes of an ancient sea, carrying my soul, my seed, beyond the mountains of time or into the abyss of the bizarre. I'd rather be unseen, and if then shunned by everyone, than to be a pleasant-smelling flower, growing in clusters in the fertile valley, where they're praised, handled, and plucked by greedy, human hands. hp
