Meee !
can someone me analyze each of the stanzas (paragraphs) in this poem? i am really bad at poem analysis and i really need on this for my assignment. you so much : )
can't is the worst word that's written or spoken;
doing more harm here than slander and lies;
on it is many a strong spirit broken,
and with it many a good purpose dies.
it springs from the lips of the thoughtless each morning
and robs us of courage we need through the day;
it rings in our ears like a timely sent warning
and laughs when we falter and fall by the way.
can't is the father of feeble endeavor,
the parent of terror and halfhearted work;
it weakens the efforts of artisans clever,
and makes of the toiler an indolent shirk.
it poisons the soul of the man with a vision,
it stifles in infancy many a plan;
it greets honest toiling with open derision
and mocks at the hopes and the dreams of a man.
can't is a word none should speak without blushing;
to utter it should be a symbol of shame;
ambition and courage it daily is crushing;
it blights a man's purpose and shortens his aim.
despise it with all of your hatred of error;
refuse it the lodgement it seeks in your brain;
arm against it as a creature of terror,
and all that you dream of you someday shall gain.
can't is the word that is foe to ambition
an enemy ambushed to shatter your will;
its prey is forever the man with a mission
and bows but to courage and patience and skill.
hate it, with hatred that's deep and undying,
for once it is welcomed 'twill break any man;
whatever the goal you are seeking, keep trying
and answer this demon by saying: "i can."

Iam for the "immediate, unconditional, and universal" enfranchisement of the black man, in ev [loud applause.] without this, his liberty is a mockery; without this, you might as well almost slavery for his condition; for in fact, if he is not the slave of the individual master, he is the slay liberty as a privilege, not as a right. he is at the mercy of the mob, and has no means of protec how does the repetition of the phrase "without this" support the paragraph's argument? it reinforces the idea that without equality in the us, the idea of a free society is a joke. it suggests that a free society is possible, with or without equal rights for all people. it indicates that douglass would be content without material possessions or status. it proposes that slavery will not be abolished in the us without the support of all citizens.
