Bitter River by Langston Hughes at Lauren Blog,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
1. Some other lines from the poem that explain what the river does are,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], swirl of the bitter river sweeps your lies away,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and bitter river reflects no stars- only the glint of steel bars i drank the bitter river that strangled my dream water of the bitter river with your taste of blood and clay,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you reflect no stars by night,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no sun by day.
2. I think the voice in the fourth stanza are the white people talking. THis is because in the very end of the poem he says did not ask for this river nor the taste of its bitter brew. I was given its water as a gift from you. Yours has been the power to force my back against the wall and make me drink of the bitter cup mixed with blood and gall. The overall tone/mood of the poem is a very sad and ominous and angry. It is telling a vary sad and depressing story. A kind of rebelling tone comes through in the end of the poem especially when it says,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], tired of the bitter river! Tired of the bars! be patient,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you say. folks will have a better day. But the swirl of the bitter river takes your words away. These lines really spoke to me because even though african americans went through so many horrible times they are still able to stand up for what they believe in and in a way fight back,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], here it seems that Langston Hughes is mocking the poeple who hung the african americans and that everyone can see through your stupid excuses.
