Bury me in the land of freedom - not one of the slaves

Frances Ellen Watkins Harper set the tone and theme in the first section of the poem from

Buried me in free land from

 , the quatrain format written in rhythm couplet. This poem is a great example of the emancipation of personal thoughts in the bondage of the body. This poem makes people feel the feeling of being captured and dragged into the hearts of slaves.

The essence of this poem stems from the lament of slaves and does not seek a glorious place to rest in secular property and a more glorious way. This poem is said to be buried outside the realm of slavery, which is beyond the scope of secular property for the author. The clarity here shows that slavery has had a terrible effect on those who are imprisoned in the dark shackles, so the blood of life is sucked away from them. The poor who lost their will to resist were more affected and their spirits were oppressed. After the death of this person, the spirit of the people should rest in peace; however, in this poem about slavery, the author suggests that her spirit "cannot rest" in the "land of slavery". This highlights the impact of slavery on the morale of those who are violently dragged into their terrible dark dungeons.

The images in the fourth quarter of this poem are very chilling. Listen to these words: from

If I see the whip / / every time the terrible wounds are drinking her blood / seeing her breasts tearing from her breasts / like the trembling pigeons from their nest, I can't sleep. from

  This section reveals the serious image that exists in slavery. Harper really poured her heart through the words in this section, calling on others to rise up against this life-threatening and life-threatening situation.

The last section explains the author of the poem about his intention to get rid of slavery. This section says, from

I don't ask any monuments, pride and high/to arrest the eyes of passers-by; / All the spiritual desires I long for, / not buried in the land of slaves. from

  Here, we feel the influence of poetry and the author's free intentions; even in death there is no hatred, violence, suffering, conditions of depression and contractual slavery.

The quality of this poem is great. Harper's mastery and expression of the language of portrait slavery is painful. Her words from

Mother screams of barbarism from

 In the third quarter, and from

Drink blood every time you have a terrible wound from

 In the fourth quarter, people feel chilly. This is just an awesome realistic poem, still applicable to modern slavery in the modern environment and the physical slavery of others.
