“Truganinny” was sort of a sad poem. It was kind of eerie almost. It was about an Indian woman who was “the last one”. She was waiting to die or dying. She mentioned how she wanted to be taken away and compared it to nature and the earth.
I enjoyed reading For the White poets who would be Indian. I liked the use of words in this poem. For example, “to snap up the words fish-hooked from our tongues”. It gave me an interesting image for this poem and what it would be like to be an Indian.
i love when poems use good images and i like how it describes what it would be like to be an indain
